Thanks for the replies.

The piece sitable is the powered rail joint=er as shown in the second link.

As some members, from whom I have asked for advice previously, may know I have had power connection problems in my stock yard due to using point blade contact.

Tha layout and stockyard splits in two halves with IRJs connecting the two, so I had a thought of using the Kato RJs as easy to disconnect/connect and applying power to all the loops by this means using switches.
They seem quite expensive though so I may try soldering wires to the standard Kato RJs which are less expensive.

I use the 62mm power feed track piece for my Unitrack test oval, but it's powered by a Bachmann train set controller

I think that the post is referring to a power input track. Yes, there is a small piece of track which accepts a plug from a Kato SX controller, as in the post above.

The easy way is with a 62 mm power feeder track: https://traintrax.co.uk/20041-62mm-feeder-track-p-281.html

The more complicated way is with powered "uni-joiners": https://traintrax.co.uk/24818-terminal-unijoiner-p-326.html

Does this system have a rail joiner with elecric connection?
If not how is power connected to track?

Andy , that's great if you have the skills and dexterity to work on these small models. Many of us have to either pass on the bargains or pay extra  for a competent engineer to fix it.

Proud to have been a Gooner for over 50 years, and not quite so proud of being a Sky Sports user for almost half of them!

At 10pm last night, I heard my phone screaming at me about an earthquake and then one big jolt to the house and that was it. Then at 4am this morning, I heard my phone screaming at me about the city being at emergency level 4 for the typhoon that was coming at us. A quaint symphony of screaming. Ah, nothing better... haha
