<p>I am thinking about using ez-track in the 36 and 33 in radius in a corner location. Above that section would be a background of a street and town and be approximately 5 inches tall and completely hide the two tracks. The issue is one of making that section mostly inaccessible for maintaining except to drop down the 5 in cover or lift off and even then it would be a hard reach so my thought is bullet proof track in that location. It would be similiar to this from 48 Top-Notch plans of a terminal. <a href="http://s205.photobucket.com/albums/bb92/Fred-trains/?action=view&current=3256F453.jpg"><img src="http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb92/Fred-trains/3256F453.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a></p><p>I am just thinking out loud at this point so imput would be helpful. I am thinking the terminal yard would be spaced away from the wall by a couple feet with maybe a pop up place to stand if needed about where the water tank is shown. </p><p>So my question is ez track great to work with or go back to flex? And are there jointers to reconnect to flex code 83 or is this a cut and solder to ez track. Does ez track need electrical drops soldered every 3 ft for DCC? </p><p>Any ideas would be helpful. And thanks for any advice. </p>
