Hey all, I'm kind of in a bind and not sure where to turn (I've been searching online w/o much luck, it took me nearly three hours to find what I was looking for to start with). Here's the deal: I've been tasked with setting up some antique O27 Lionel's (from the 50's) by my uncle for my nephew. I've got almost everything except a Lock-On (to bring power to the rails from the transformer, a Lionel 1033; finding the lock-on took me 3 hours because I didn't know what I was looking for aside from "power to rails from track" essentially). Right now I'm looking for a non-destructive hackity-hack that will both bring power to the rails and allow the train free passage around the track (I've been doing some tests with test-lead clips to little success). This only has to work for tomorrow, afterward I can order the Lock-On and wait for it to arrive. Thanks, and once again sorry for the off-topicness. -- Yours in Christ, Joseph A Nagy Jr "Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, But he who hates correction is stupid." -- Proverbs 12:1 Emails are not formal business letters, whatever businesses may want.
