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

That doesn't sound right. If track power is correctly applied to the layout and two pieces of FT track are connected with soldered wires center to center rail and outside rail to outside rail (it's easy to get them messed up), it's rare that there would not be any connectivity. 

I would go through the steps to solder the tabs underneath each FT piece and then go through the pin bending/straightening and rail squeezing steps, first.

I assume these are DC power packs. How is each connected to the layout ?  Are you using a FT terminal piece for each one ? Try disconnecting two of them and just run the track on one pack and see what happens. Then add one at a time and see if the problem persists.
