Joining Power Track pieces

[B Q]

Afternoon, is there any one that could assist in letting me know if it is possible to connect one piece of power track to another in order to make loops A to D work on my son's new hornby track. I assumed I required power track but not sure how to connect one piece to anot her piece? Regards.

I'd recommend you read the second pinned post in the general discussion area.

 

Also If you have Extension Pack C it should have come with a link wire set.

 

So you can either wire the controller to one of your power tracks and then use the link wire between the loops, or if you have two Power Tracks, you can wire the controller to one of them, but then add a second set of wires from that power track to the one on the other loop

 

As a quick guide if you put the Power Track connectors (or the clips that slot into a hole just under the rails on the track) all on the outside (or all on the inside) of loops, then you connect the left side of the connectors to each other and the right side to each other. However if you place one connector on the inside of a loop and one on the outside you will need to cross the connections over.
