Hi all....started with NYC Flyer Lionel set..fastrack 3rail ....80 w transformer and have now expanded to about 80' of track with 4 remote switches and only 2 terminal track sections....Is there a rule of thumb for terminal spacing because where the Loco slows is not relative to the terminals as far asI can tell. Also...I am pulling about 16 - 20 cars at a time ....some die cast with weight to them but most ABS with metal trucks....Also ,what is best lube method if any for Loco gears/wheels. Do lighted cars/caboose etc draw much power/... Should I wire switches to the accessory post ?...right now they draw from track???Thanks Dan
