That sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. My idea was to put a decoder in one car, and put something like these disconnects in between them, but the reed switch sounds like the way to go for that. Greg QUOTE: Originally posted by JPM335 Im also very interested in where you get micro disconnects. All my acela cars pick up power, if I link them all together electrically, no dirty track can stop me![:D] I got mine from a bulk electronics store back in Jr. High. They are the same connectors that you find connecting the batteries to the reciever unit in Cordless Phones. However when I ran out. The store that I purchased them from had moved or gone out of business. (I don't know which) I have not had much luck finding them online. And Radio Shack looks at me like I am nuts. But I know that they have to be available some where. If anyone can direct me to some online suppliers or know where these connectors can be located. I to would appreciate this info. James
