Building your Lionel layout

Y
our set comes with eight O36 curved sections, two 10" straight sections, one wall-pack terminal
section of track, and one 10" Plug-Expand-Play power lock-on track section. Figure 2 shows the
oval layout that you can build with these track sections. You may choose to add more FasTrack track
sections to create an endless number of exciting track arrangements for more fun, action, and variety.

Joining the FasTrack track sections

F
asTrack track sections join together easily. With interlocking roadbed sections and large rail tabs,
the track fits together securely so you always have good electrical contact. Take a look at Figure 3
to see how to join the track sections.
1. Line up your two sections of track.
2. Insert the rail tabs into the openings at the ends of the corresponding rails.
3. Press the sections together until the interlocking roadbed snaps into place.

Connecting your wall-pack power supply

our trains are powered by a DC wall-pack power supply. To power the track, simply plug the
wall-pack into an outlet and plug the jack into the terminal section as shown in Figure 4.
