Hi All,
I have a 5 year old train nut and an old Lionel set that I decided to set up for us. I am still working on the benchwork and the table will be ready this weekend! I determined that I needed some new track and have bought Atlas code 100. I figure that it is tougher and better for a youngster.
Anyway...I went to test the engine and power supply and while putting together a small loop to do that - the stock joiner cut the crap out of my thumb. Is there a trick to getting them installed? Or is there a better after market product? I eventually used a small set of pliers and got everything working, but OUCH! Thanks for any responses.
