70, 83, and 100 rail that holds ME rail ends in precise align-
ment. They’re also small – good if you care about the appear-
ance of your track.
I use Atlas joiners if I need to connect Atlas and ME rail.
Forcing wider Atlas code 83 rail into a ME joiner usually
causes the rail joiner to split. I carefully hold the ends of the
rail in horizontal and vertical alignment with tweezers when
soldering these joints.

position and becoming misaligned. I work the ties back
into alignment once the track is laid.
