So right now im just running a simple oval loop with the lionel fast track and a Lionel CW-80. Now Im planing on building a serious layout on a table. These are going to be my track plans. (This is to going to be a 2 level, A top eleveated one and a bottom one. This picture represents how the top and bottom will be and excuse the terrible drawing, Beginner photoshop user). 

I only have one issue. I have no idea on how to set up atlas O track. I only know the very basics of setting up like connecting tracks and putting the Lionel fast track terminal section to the transformer and getting it to run. Now I need help. I need to know how to make the connecting wires from the tracks to the transformer longer since on the lower level of the table is where all the wires will run to the transformer but form what iv seen the wires are really short on the lionel fast track. I dont know where to connect the wires to the tracks for atlas, I didnt see any terminal section for Atlas O. Any help will be appreciated, Thank you guys.

All MTH transformers have dual function outputs.

You can plug a banana lead in the end of the knob or twist the knob loose and put the wire thru the hole revealed underneath crossways. Then just tighten the knob back down.

You will have to strip the wire end back a bit longer.

 

As always make Red go to Red and Red to center rail.
