I solder short leads to each rail joiner, and then join them into a section feed below the baseboard.

seems to work.

I've done this also with literally dozens of track feed points,

I would give a warning to those who's layout isn't kept at ideal temperatures like mine,
If your going to solder your rails together as suggested do it in the summer, right now in the cold my track gaps have opened a touch, and in summer will retract of clogged with solder this could lead to track warping when there's no room for expansion....
