Getting back into the hobby with my grandkids so I've tried finding an answer to my simple HO EZ Track question but haven't found anything.

Can I substitute the plain old straight (44528) or curved (44529) Rerailers (which have the same connectors on each side) and left over "Short Red Power Wire - Old" from remote turnouts that I've chained together for the Terminal Rerailers w/ Wires (e.g. 44510) for use as feeders?  Just trying to save a bit of money as the Terminal Rerailers are twice as expensive the plain Rerailers and I already have a bunch of orphaned power wires.  Thanks.

The "plain old" rerailers are the same size as the "terminal rerailers", but they do not have the connections for the old, or new, red power wires to connect to.

If at first you don't succeed, throw it in the spare parts box.
