How do i connect the flex tracks to an existing ho scale track

[Guilford Guy]

What is your situation? Are you running trains on the floor? A layout? What types of track are you using?

If you're using EZ track and wishing to connect it to flex track, you'll need to elevate the flex with strips of cork or similar roadbed material. Do you have a rail cutter like Xuron's? When forming a curve you'll need to shorten the inner rail.

first thing you will need to do is cut the spike heads off the ties at the end of the flex track section. you can do this by cutting with a hobby saw along the underside of the rails so that the ties seperate from the rails. then you just slip on a couple of rail joiners and connect like regular track. of course, as was mentioned in a previous post, you will have to raise the track level with whatever track you are connecting it to.
