[quote user="bibbster"] So first comes the where, and then, of course, comes the how. You've been warned. [/quote] The how is easy.  You cut a gap in one rail and insulate with styrene or use insulating rail joiners.  You wire each section as with an on/off switch and/or selector switch for which power pack is controlling it.  Atlas has a book on DC layout wiring, I think it is still in print. The where requires someone who has done a DC layout recently, or uses DC for layout control (Im actually planning on using DC for the logging layout in the bedroom, wife's idea, not mine).
