I would definitely span the modules with a section of snap trak or flex track. I've seen too many cases in an N-Trak layout where a double module was built as two units designed to be placed together. The track was laid across the joint and when it was "fully secured" the rail was cut. It may line up a time or two but after that you can count on problems as there is too much flexing and bending of each section to permit an accurate line up every time. If you dont want to span the joint with snap or flex track than at least cut back on each rail by 1/32" , undercut one side of the track and slide a rail joiner on that track. After the modules are set in place, slide the rail joiners in place and that may work. <br /> <br />Ed Schultz
