Steven, There are many different ways to isolate the rails of an electrical block. The method I use is rather simple. I apply super glue to the rails at three ties on either side of where I want to

If your solder joint doesn't start to make immediately, you probably need more cleaning. You can wipe the soldering iron tip on a sponge or damp paper towel, folded several times. For the rail, a

Yes, you need to separate the districts electrically. I have my version of the Red Oak Line and have a PM42. The front track is Zone 1. The hidden staging tracks is Zone 2, The hidden Staging tracks

You need to separate each district. Plastic joiners work but if rail is down you can use thin fiber disk in Dremel tool to cut a thin gap. This gap can be filled with styrene glued in place with CA

Hello I am using the Digitrax PM 42 to segment 4 power sub-districts. My track is already down and soldered. I did not use plastic insulating rail joiners to separate the districts. Is this required?

The key for soldering is speed. If it takes longer that a second to make the joint, back off and try another technique. I don't use resistance soldering, so have no idea how that works in real life.
