You can get a special liquid that will darken the sides of track, however it has several downsides (darkening track in general) and i do not do it myself because of this. <br /> <br />1) it makes the rails hard to solder. <br /> <br />2) It can leach onto the top surface of the rails and cause high resistance sections of track. <br /> <br />I bought some when i first started 2nd hand track that had been darkened and never again will i do that. <br /> <br /> <br />Rgds Ian
