What track can activate Lionel Candy Cane Dump car?

Hi, Marty.

Lionel Super "O" and Atlas "O" have two blades that fit between the rails of a straight section for operating cars. Either one may work for you. One blade is wired to a remote control button; the other, to a ground rail.

Marty;
I just checked the problem on my layout.
The RealTrax operating section is almost too short.
If I position a car centered on the section it catches the ends of the activating rails and works every time. Anyway, that works with my naughty or nice dump car.
You could also extend the activating rails a bit with that stick on aluminum foil.
Looking at the plastic guide flanges on the section you can add a half inch of length easy, maybe an inch if you are willing to shape the foil a bit.
If you are up to taking it apart, I'd expect you could shift the operating rails more towards the ends of the section and that would help as well.

I'm switching to Scaletrax now, more because of the looks than operating issues.
Love the length of the operating section on that!!!

Thanks
Both great ideas. I'm going to try modifying my realtrax piece as suggested. Part of my problem, is it is my first exp with operating track, and I don't know how it works.

MTH has Realtrax tubular transition pieces. Another option would be to get them and a Lionel operating track section.
