I would consider a fold-down extension with 2 folding legs like on a card table. This would help keep your rails aligned when it is up. If you are planning large structures on the extension, then I would try something else.

You could also attach the extension with door hinges. Door hinges are fairly easy to remove and they are commonly found and easy to install.

Look up how the NTRK folks do their modules and treat your extension like a module. You can modify it to fit your needs and scale, since your is a dedicated module. In general try to have straight tracks across the joint.
