Well one way is to use wired rail joiners and then solder them to the track. Another is to drill a small hole where you want the wire to come up next to the track through your benchwork and just solder a small solid copper wire to the rail dierctly. Either way is acceptable, however thewired rail joiners dont absolutely have to be soldered to the track if you arent up to the task with you soldering skills. Just make sure your rail joiners are tight on the rail and it will work but you do increase the risk of having a faulty connection by not soldering.
