Hello,
This is my first post! I'm trying (my best) to wire up the first module of my railway, and I'm having a difficult time finding a product similar to the pluggable chocolate block connectors that are sold by DCC concepts here in the United States. Does anyone know of an alternative?
Thanks and have a great day.

A Google search took me to a selection on Amazon.
Sorry I'm not familiar with them, so I went looking. Are these what you are looking for?
Or something else?

Yes, something similar or exactly this. I'm trying to find someone who sell them in the states.
Sorry Im striking out here. All seem to be available overseas. I did find Iron Planet Hobbies had them but are sold out currently. Maybe Email them and see if they can order it.

Here is one on EBay. The shipping is not that outrageous. I guess it boils down to how bad you need it.

Alrighty. Thank you very much for taking the time to help me. I hope you have a wonderful day!
I found a pack of 20 for $12.99 on Amazon.

Thank you for taking the time to look, but I'm looking for a pluggable terminal block on case I need to take down or set up the modules of my layout

My apologies, I didn't understand that you were looking for that exact type of strip. Your module alignment would have to be near perfect in order for those to work. I'd rather have a short jumper wire between the 2 blocks to ensure good connectivity.
