Ross switches were made specifically to mate with Gargraves track. Give Steve a call and he will get them out to you quickly.
Paolo, do you suggest a brand name for conductive epoxy filler? Sounds like a great idea.

Used Silver Conductive 2 part epoxy from the Ebay. Type this into the search engine "Conductive Silver Epoxy Low Cost Excellent Electrical Continuity, 906, 2.5gm" Its only $11 and does not require heat to crosslink. It does take one or two days to totally cure, longer in colder temps. Should be 60F or above. Been pleasantly pleased so far. Track is quiet and the gaps are not shortening the life of the rubber traction tires. Be sure to clean excess off track. Used on both center and outside rail joints. Seems to hold up well. If you need to remove or change a track, it seems to chip off easily enough as well.
