Thanx again people, Looks like what I'm going to end up doing is: 1) Using a Dremel-based wierbrush on the rails to get the paint off, as Chip suggested; 2) Pre-'tinning' the rail with solder where the lead will attach; 3) Pre-'tinning' the lead; 4) Using some sort of clamp to press the lead against the rail; 5) Apply heat to fuse the lead and the rail together Notice there is NOTHING about drilling any more holes! Later tonight I'll find out if this plan actually works or not....
