Reply to "How Too Fix Problem With Lionel Fastrak With Voltage Drop"

It is definately my track.

I found pins so loose on one track section, it was making static type electrical noise.

Had to replace that piece.

The straights where it goes from slow to rocket fast were, kind of dirty, I cleaned them and the engines run  much better, but there is still voltage drops.

Even worse, i have a very very low voltage spot that causes trains to stall out and loose all power, unless you are going very fast, and it is very hard to get to.

I will have to lift off that part of the layout, kind of a pain...but I am more concerned with what will happen of this ever happens again when the layout is done.

I dont want to rip up scenery.

i do have an access hatch there, but man...my body cant take getting down, crawling, and all that bending and kneeling.

I am gonna have to do it no way around it and get it RIGHT.

Kind of sad, because for about 10 minutes they were running pretty nice even for Pullmors.
