The roadbed and pin connectors match the rest of the FasTrack system, so it drops right into a yard ladder, siding, or industry spur without any custom wiring on the rails themselves. A button on the included controller activates the magnet to release the coupler when a car is positioned over the section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis piece is the cornerstone of any switching layout — let your operator set out cars at customers and pick them back up without ever touching the rolling stock.

Older non-magnetic couplers and Kadee couplers do not uncouple over this track.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it work better off track power or an accessory supply?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth work, but a fixed 14V AC accessory supply gives the strongest, most reliable uncoupling pulse — especially at low throttle where track voltage can drop too low.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is a half-straight included?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe uncoupling section is 5\" long. The included 5\" half-straight pairs with it to fill a standard 10\" FasTrack block, so you can drop it into an existing layout without re-laying track.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this compatible with Lionel tubular or American Flyer track?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. FasTrack is its own roadbed system.
