Hello. I am new to forum and am over 40 yrs behind times.I had a simple Lionel layout in the 50`s and that is about it.I am trying to build a layout with Gargraves track.I have some switch machines but have decided to use manual turnouts because the NJ and Tortoise machines look like you need a degree in electrical engineering to hook up.About the blocks you mentioned,how can you run 2 trains on the same track even if you use the block wiring? Wouldn`t you need a real long track? I only have room for an 8`x8` layout.I have trouble soldering as well.Can`t get solder to stick to middle blcak rail even after scraping off the black.Any tips on the block wiring,soldering,installing turnouts,sidings,ect. would be most appreciated.Best regards to all
