Ever had your loco stop dead in the same spot every time? Or maybe one section of track runs great—until you flip a switch and everything dies?
Model railways are full of little quirks that keep us on our toes. Whether it’s dirty rails, loose joiners, a short circuit, or something more mysterious, we’ve all run into layout issues that make us scratch our heads.
Let’s help each other out:
What layout problem are you currently wrestling with?
How do you test for dead spots or voltage drops?
Got a go-to trick for fixing switches, crossings, or reverse loops?
Do you use track cleaning cars, conductive paste, or a specific DMM setup?
