Tight Rail Joiners

Enter your post below.
I use two pieces of Atlas 5" straight sectional track. The ends are filed down a little. I slide one end of a joiner onto each rail of the first track, then slide the second track into the joiners. I "open" the joiner by flexing the two pieces of track in a slight up-and-down motion. <br /> <br />If handy, after flexing and separation of the two straights, you can then mate the straight piece with the expanded joiners to the piece of track you actually want the joiners used on, using an X-acto #11 blade to slide them off/on. <br />
