You can. The only drawback is that the Atlas terminal joiners are fairly expensive compared to snipping a short piece of wire and soldering it to the rail; on a large layout the terminal joiners could add up to a hefty expense. <br /> <br />On the other side of the coin, though, you have the issue of two left thumbs, cranky soldering irons, and solder that never wants to melt (It's always a poor craftsman who blames his tools!) It's my side of the coin. If your soldering skills are as poor as mine, you are fully justified in considering the terminal rail joiners. I have umpteen gazillion melted plastic ties as evidence.
