Long story short, I am the only one allowed in my office at this time. Management has given me permission to set up my trains.
I have a 12 ft x 36 ft oval of Lionel Fastrack. That measurement is not including the 0-72 turns.
I have 6 points of distributed power, as well as one switch that I wired power into.
This is a carpet line, I have never has a layout this large before and the tracks do move a little causing electrical irruptions.
So I figured is I attached the track to boards of some kind the tracks will stay in place and there will be more consistence electrical contact.
I am using an MTH Z4000 for my power supply.
Questions:
What size board would be best. this is for a single line.
How would you handle the turns, I have limited tools, but can adapt.
Also the Switch that I wired up, I think that is does not act as a power distribution track? Should it or did I do something wrong.
Keep in mind, this is in an office, its coming down as soon as they lift the shelter in place order, so I don't want to invest a lot of money in this.
As always thanks in advance
