<p>I would also reccomend soldering the flex track both on the curves and into turnouts where a curve starts shortly after the turnout.  If you need to remove it later, you can always desolder it (using Desoldering braid, available from your local electronics supply store).  Just make sure when you are soldering you use a heat sink such as a pair of locking tweezers or alligator clips to dissapate the heat away from the joint.  This will minimize the melting of ties in most cases. </p> <p>Also, is your track plan based on the MR Virginian project railroad from a few years back?</p>
