Hey tim, <br />Let me ask a few questions to help us answer your question right. Are you planning to isolate the yard from the rest of your layout or is it getting powered but the track it joins on to. If your powereing it so you can have it isolated then your need the isolation joiners. Then you have to connect the power to a switch to get the power to turn on and off. If it's being powered from the track its connected to then you may have a switch that is not feeding the power to the track. If this is the case than all you have to do is connect a feeder wire to the yard or buy a new switch. This should help a little I'm sure someone with a little electrical know how will fill in the rest of the details. <br />Andrew
