How to spread rail joiners
Posted by JeremyB on Saturday, January 17, 2004 9:15 AM
Hi guys

I forgot to ask this question im my last post. But how is the easiest way to spread apart rail joiners so I can drop a new piece of track in place of a damaged one.

thanks again guys

Remove two or three ties from the track and slide the rail joiners out of the way. Remove the bad track
section. Replace the track section and slide the joiners back onto the track. Replace the ties. Dave
