all night, woow you MUST BE TIRED!!!!
Look at Aristos HW cars and see the brass bushing drilled into their side frames. also use conductive greese from auto store.
I know you can buy different size bushings and make them work.
Is it REAL? or Just 1:29 scale?
Long live Outdoor Model Railroading.
Marty,
Been looking all night but can not seem to find a view or picture of how there made.
OH???? I thought you meant Chevy or Ford pickups.
Those USAT will creat drag on the wheels. See how Arsito does theirs, its better. sorry no photos.
Electric pick ups........
Mark, I use a similar system, I crimp a spade connector on the wire, apply some No-Ox and slip the connector between the rail and tie strip. I bend the end of the spade tips over the rail base to keep the connection from pulling apart. I have critters running through the property.
If it works don't touch it, Rob
Both split jaw and Hillman make railclamps that have electrical connector terminals on them. I have used the more simple method of sliding the wire directly under the rail and pinching it between the rail and the ties. Simply take a small jewelers type screwdriver and gently pry open the plastic strip between two cross ties. Insert the wire and slide it to one side or the other until it is snugly in place between the tie and the rail.
