I don't think you should wipe a cleaned surface with your finger.

@bbcisrubbish Thanks for watching, no perhaps not, but everyone to to their own. This is only a guide not gospel, please if you feel the need use a rag to clean any excess solder or flux from the joint. Most tracks will need to be cleaned with a track cleaner/rubber and vacuumed before use to clear and rubbished left from placing the feeder cable down. *KJR*

@OurModelRailway Hmm i see your KJR is that your initals ??? if so are you called Kial James Rontree ??? tah lol

[OurModelRailway]

@pyronathanpyro Close, but no

SetTrack is Peco track the comes in set sizes a bit like Hornby, Streamline is flexible track it comes in approximatly 1 meter lenghts but is tighter then Hornby FlexiTrack which is really loose and wobberly. (Hope that explains it, pop to you local model store im sure they will show you the difference.) *KJR*

I would love it if you did a vid purely on the bus wire, where it comes from and how it ends etc?

@FSXMate Now I understand please watch Model Soldering Dropper to Bus Wire - DCC for details of what equipment is required

[FSXMate]

@OurModelRailway What i' trying to say is ... this is impossable if you don't have the equptment with you at that moment .

[OurModelRailway]

@FSXMate sorry, I am confused by what you mean?

[FSXMate]

Who has all this equiptment on the go ? Its impossible this would take a couple of days after you have got the tools !
