I bought a transition track to accept O fastrack to O27 tubular.  I was wrong.  It only transitions to regular O. Does anyone know of a way to make some adjustments to the pins so they will fit?  Is this possible? I could file the fastrack pins to fit, but will it still run? thanks for any help.

You can do this by starting with three "O" pins, and grind one end(to the half way point) of each 3/4 of the way around to match the diameter of the O-27 track pins/openings.

 

If you instead grind them to the center, there will be a significant "bump" at the transition.

 

For an example of this "offset" method, look closely at the GarGraves "O" & O-27 adapter pins:
