After I fixed the humpty I sent earlier I did some wiggling of other track to
find it was under some tension as well. 1 turnout rail grew, filled a gap and
shorted. Maybe I did not leave enough gaps when I laid the track. So on both
mainlines I removed short sections and gave them a trim.
Here all along I though hot = expansion and cool = contraction. It is probably
mid 60s in my basement now. It might get a little hotter in the summer but
still… Maybe someone has an explanation as to why my track grew in multiple
places in the middle of winter!
Two possibilities... lower humidity caused the wood framework to shrink or
it was the work of aliens.
Take care
Bill
