Rail Joins at Lifting Sections Rick Fletcher - NSW Australia

This the latex carpet adhesive used to hold all the track, points and underlay in place. Preparing the join on the entry lift-up-flap.

The track has weights added until the latex cement sets. Note the plywood pieces to align the rail joins.

3 sleepers were removed and PCB replacements soldered in place. The middle of the sleepers sanded away to insulate both sides. The track is code 75.

When the glue had set, the join line was cut with a razor saw. Slow and tedious. The latex was not up to the job on these sleepers and I now use epoxy.
