Just curious. Excuse my ignorance, but I've never installed a turntable or a transfer table, so I'm not familiar with how they operate. Since the track obviously separates at some point when the thing is turning, how does the connection stay there? Same thing with those Walthers bridges that retract up and down (and the one the that swings sideways). How is it that the circuit is not broken? <br /> <br />Thanks. [:D]
