Reply to "The best gauge of wire to use ?"

RJR - Thanks for the clarification and thanks for the education.  Until I wired my layout, I was used to wiring houses with my friend.  Roll of 12-2 with ground, lots of holes, and the occasional 10 gauge and 8 gauge for 30 amp and 50 amp requirements.

FASTMAN and RJR - 14 would be great.  However, as I mentioned in my initial reply to this thread.  The reason for the higher gauge wire was due to the unchangeable reality of how small fastrack connections were designed to be.  By the way I just got your caboose reply.  Great idea.  I might just take you up on that one.  Back to my question.  Will stranded 14 gauge wire fit in the connector I need to connect the wire to the track connectors?  I can stick it under those screws and hook it to the TIU no problem, but when it comes to those track connections, that's a small area to work with.
