<P>I do believe i am the oldest member of this forum i will be 70 in December. </P> <P>On the joining rail, when i first got into garden railways i read a textbook put out by Kalmbach and i was particularly impressed by what Jack Verducci had to say, i have followed his advice to the letter and it has all worked out for me on everything he had to say. Very practical. What i do is to join all pieces of rail with an LGB rail joiners and then i solder them. Every so often i will sectionalise the track and use a Hillman clamp and every set of points (switches) are treated as a section and i use Hillman clamps on them as well;to allow for easy removal for service and i cannot tell you how often i have been glad that i did this.</P> <P>Rgds ian</P>
