Each joiner has a small pigtail wire already attached — just slip the joiner onto the rail end and run the wire down through the layout deck to your power bus.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Atlas #465 is a \u003cstrong\u003epair (one red, one black) of terminal rail joiners\u003c\/strong\u003e sized for HO Code 83 True-Track sections. Use them at the feed point of each electrical block to deliver clean DC or DCC power to that section of track.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlip one joiner onto each rail end (typically at the end of a True-Track section).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrill a small hole through the layout deck beneath the joiner and route the pigtail wires through it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect to your DC power pack or DCC booster bus, observing polarity (red = inside \/ north rail, black = outside \/ south rail by convention).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse one pair every 6-10 feet on a DCC bus to maintain reliable voltage along the layout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor non-True-Track plain Atlas Code 83, use Atlas #560 plain joiners and solder feeders, or use the same #465 with the roadbed trimmed away.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e HO (1:87)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRail Code:\u003c\/strong\u003e Code 83 nickel silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Terminal rail joiners with pigtail wires\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 pair (red + black)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Atlas True-Track\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 465\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Atlas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45097007481014,"sku":"150-465","price":6.26,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/5131\/1286\/files\/57_a24ec483-6da0-44f9-8038-c41df780f32f.jpg?v=1779570905","url":"https:\/\/oakvillemodeltrains.com\/products\/atlas-465-ho-scale-true-track-code-83-terminal-rail-joiners-1-pair","provider":"Oakville Model Trains Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
