I have an n gauge layout but I don't know how to wire/ hook up crossing signals. Some people tell me I can buy the track which I've seen on Kato but I have ez track. I hear I need resistors, etc. I cannot hook up like "just plug in lighting"?

Building a DC operated turntable, one entry road, three radiating other side. Any tips on wiring please. Thanks.
Rail turning green after ballasting and white glue. This was a question your presenters struggled with. I suggest there is Iron Pyrites in the ballast, as applying a PVA white glue creates an acid, that attacks the copper within the nickel silver rail, leaving green compound (copper acetate?). The solution to prevent this may be as simple as changing to another brand of ballast
It is well worth joining the MRA. I took advantage of a special sign up rate, and have been very happy with the full length videos included. I've bought several downloads as well. Good site!
