Maybe should clarify a couple of things. First, I’m trying to do this with plain mechanical joints, no solder. Second, I made a mistake in spray-painting the track (Floquil “Railroad Tie Brown”) without much thought or protection of the rails. Got the rail tops cleaned off and the bottoms of the track ends are clean, but am having some difficulty getting the “flange” (?) where the connector slips over clean. It is real tedious work and was hoping there was a short cut or easy way to clean the track ends. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome. <br /> <br />Jim <br />
