The part of a layout nobody sees and everybody underestimates. Bad wiring is the single most common reason a layout runs badly — dead frogs, stalling locomotives, flickering lights and short circuits that trip a whole district.
We stock what it takes to do it properly: layout hookup wire in every gauge and colour from Wire Works, Peco power feed joiners and point motor accessories, Atlas connectors, terminal joiners and control switches, Digitrax occupancy detectors and power managers, plus heat shrink tubing, bus wire, circuit breakers, auto-reversers and block detection circuits from Circuitron.
A rule of thumb worth following: run a heavy bus wire under the layout and drop feeders to every section of rail rather than relying on joiners to carry current. See DCC Decoders and DCC Systems & Controllers for the rest of the control system, and Sound & Lighting for signals and LED lighting.
