Reply to "Electrical Problems with Lionel Lion Chief On Fastrack"

Fastrack connectivity can vary over a period of time, even short periods like days.  As my layout grew and I added more track, sometimes the new sections would last for a couple days and then I would have issues.   Pushing down on the track would cause inconsistent voltage with my fingers or a train.   The pins in the track get looser over time and it makes things worse, faster.   I didn’t resolve the issue until I added extra feeds around the layout and did some track maintenance …cleaned it thoroughly, bent the center pins inwards, screwed track down where the surface was uneven, and also cleaned the wheels and pick ups on the engines.
