UCS-6 Remote Control Track Section

KneefixedOGR Forum Member

I wish to add a post war remote control track to my layout. The controller has 4 flat wires which I have no idea which wire gets connected to the 4 screws on the track section. Is there a sequence which wire gets connected to which screw on the track section? Are the screws on the track section numbered 1,2,3,4 from left to right or right to left? Same on the controller. On underside of track section are these numbers UCS-6 and number 2 below that. I’ve found pictures of this track section but nothing showing correct wiring. Any help or advise greatly appreciated.

But Wire #3 from the controller should come back to your transformers' Accessory post.

Anyone working on or making repairs to their postwar Lionel trains really should buy a Greenberg's or K-line Lionel repair manual. $24.95 at The Train Tender. S&W and other forum sponsors probably have them also. Lot of parts and wiring diagrams. I have been working on trains for a long time and still refer to mine often. There are also many service tips included. I have an original Lionel Service manual but it is probably 9" thick and weighs 25 or more pounds. Only get it out when the small book doesn't give me the answer I am looking for.
