powering the track of any model railroad is an essential thing. that's why i added feeders to almost every track joint. of course this means a lot of wiring and work but it is well worth the effort. there's nothing more satisfying than smooth and reliable operation.
on my rather large layout i used hundreds of powered rail joiners. here's how i build them.
first i build a jig by using some wood and short pieces of track. i use peco code 55 flextrack so i had plenty of small pieces left.
next i slide on the peco railjoiners onto the tracks.
add a drop of solder
cut the necessary wires and fire up your soldering tool.
first wires soldered.
after approx 10-15minutes you have quite a bunch of ready to use powered rail joiners.
