With K-Line's version of Super Streets only the 10 inch section had both power hook-up tabs, the curves may have only one power tab and it was for the outside rails.

The small sections; 2 & half inch don't have any power hook-up. The five inch might be the same as the curves for power hook-up.

 

To secure the track to plywood table I used a # 4 phillips head screw, counter sunk style, that are 3/4 of an inch long.

The standard SS and EXs vehicles will run on AC or DC - and go forward only in all cases (They each have a full wave rectifier inside).  so you can run them off any standard O gauage AC power supply or just about any N or HO gauge Dc set.  I use a Tech III DC power supply.   

 

If you take them apart and remove the recitifier snd resolder the leads, they will then only run only on DC, but they will reverse when you reverse polarity.  I've done this to all but the only three of my SS vehicles (two that are rare K-line vans from the first series of production and one (the only one I have ever seen) that has an e-unit in it (and it to runs on AC or DC and the e-unit will F-N-R on either!)
