? C'mon Frank, by your reasoning soldering wire runs from the 180 PoHo, or its favorite extended appliance, to the raw rail flanges would be a UL violation. Tell me that only an ancient mechanical clip-on device is to be used on the rails instead of soldering. I have followed your genius from beginning of this Forum and learned much. But I must say many, many layouts, home, club and at shows would not pass your UL inspection.

Just an obsolete model railroader who "hacked " John Will of Gun Runner fame by selling him one of my 5 180 PoHos with spade lugs soldered on the conductors ends . I should have charged more for the improvement.

Sorry for the post delay after the ?- stuff happened!
