I've got a MTH Operating Boxcar and from the looks of the bottom, it seems to have a power pickup on the center rail and requires two accessory shoes to function. My question is how to wire the accessory shoes. According to the MTH manual it states it should work with the 40-1008 operating track section but this manual doesn't fully explain how the 4th and 5th rails are wired which is what I need to understand to get this box car to work. I'm using atlas track so my plan is to use the atlas accessory rails to get this working as soon as I understand how it needs to be wired.
