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

Good tips. I've also discovered pieces of fastrack where the rail wasn't seated all the way down to the roadbed. When this happens the plastic guides on top of the roadbed the rail is supposed to rest between can prevent the rail from being pressed against both sides of the pins. On these occasions I turn the track over, open the tabs. Using a c clamp and two wooden shims,  squeeze the rail down into place making sure it rest against the roadbed between the plastic guides on the top then bend the tabs back into place.
