[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by KenLarsen Later tonight I'll find out if this plan actually works or not....[/quote] Well I tried it and it worked...mostly anyway. I discovered that I didn't have good lighting, and it was too late to drive to Home Depot to buy a light fixture. So when I Dremel-wirebrushed the paint off the outer sides of the rails, it was hard for me to tell if I had cleaned them adequately or not, they always looked dark. I continued with the rest of my plan, and now I have solid electrical contact between the track sections. Also, the test cars roll freely and smoothly over the junctions. However, it is butt-ugly - I need to find a way to disguise those melted ties. Oh well, two out of three ain't bad...![:D] I'll need to buy myself one of those mechanic's drop-lights before I continue the work this Saturday. Again, thanx alot guys!
