i'm new to model railroading, i have a 5X8 layout unfinished rocky terrain built in fiberglass and bondo. all track is atlas, switches are atlas. controller and sound controller. i have several questions, but no digital camera. <br />1)i got the track running good except for one intersection of two loops at a 30 degree angle. looking to replace this intersection, but i dont know where to buy. <br />the local hobby shop does not have. <br /> <br />2) the wiring on this set up is elaborate( to me anyways) i have 6 electric switches, underneath these are a series of boxes with 5 vertical switches on each box. boxes say atlas on them and are green and black. what are these for, please? <br /> <br />the whole set up was free, and i am eager to fix it up. i want to make sure the basic track and wiring is right before i start detailing the layout. <br /> <br />thanks for your help.
