Terminal strips are fine- but what I did was screw an eyelet (often used in picture framing) to the inside of my layout framing joists opposite each other and then attached heavy guage solid strand wire taut between them. To this I soldered a short piece of wire and attached the other end to the power pack negative. This gave me a 'bus-bar' to attach as many leads as needed to the different yard track negative rails. I did the same for the positive but put an on/off switch in between to isolate power to that track as needed. Terminal strips work the same way. Hope this helps.
