Just pull the pin from the center rail to isolate the tracks.  Just pulling the pin should have enough space to insulate the center rails.

O gauge question
Posted by Afdahl Flats on Friday, May 29, 2020 3:40 PM

Hello, I am not much of an O gauge person, but I have a small loop layout with a drive through siding that was my grandpa's. I'd like to park a train on the siding while also running one on the loop. Is it possible to do so if I stuck insulating pins in-between the switch tracks and the siding? Keep in mind I am using 3 rail Lionel track and am running postwar trains. 

 

     Thanks in advance
