[@ronh4473]

Hi there. I am new to the hobby and just bought an o-scale train. Like you I want to run a fasttrack or realtrax layout on the floor. How did you do your feeder wires for on the carpet?

[@MPT_Productions]

If I understand your question right, you just run the wires from the track to your power supply which can be plugged into the wall.

[@ronh4473]

Is that layout not in need of any bus or feeders? Is that just one fasttrack piece with the wires, hooked to a "x" watt transformer, plugged into the wall, and run? I am hoping to avoid soldering or if needed figure out how to do it on the floor hidden under the fasttrack. Thank you for your time, I appreciate it!

[@MPT_Productions]

It's hard to decide if I want the 1225 or the 765 in the future the 1225 can be transferred into the poler Express with the Poler Express tender but I love bolth whistles. I think I'm going with 1225 it has more ability for options and you cant go wrong with the poler Express
