Rail joiners
Tue, 2010-04-27 14:03 — SPTom
Guys, for my layout, at least initially, I will be mixing a combination of Walthers code 83 and Atlas code 83 track. I know some someone must have used this combination at one time or another. My question is which rail joiner to use? Or what modification might need to be made. The Atlas joiner seems rather large and loose fitting while the Walthers joiner is smaller and very tight fitting. I know I will need to shim the Walthers track at transition points and more than likely solder all joiners. I just don’t want to put myself behind the power curve by using the wrong joiners right out of the shoot.
Thanks for any help anyone can throw my way,
Tom
