I need some advice. I am planning to build a family room perimeter layout using Lionel Fastrack. The room is 20’ X 18’. I will be using an MTH DCS Explorer with Z1000 power supply, for now, but plan on upgrading to the full MTH DCS system in the future. I wanted to know if it is possible to use jumper wires and solder the rail tabs for each piece of track, and use a single wire to power it or run separate feeder wires to the track to avoid voltage drop issues. If my calculations are correct, I would need 12 feeder wires and I am not sure how I could conceal all those runs of wires under the track. I don’t plan on using any accessories or switches. Please let me know my best way to tackle. Thank you.
