Transistion over module gaps

Steve:
If you are not planning to take it to shows every few months, then I would suggest either alignment dowels or 1/4" bolts. A bolt with a couple of dowels should be more than sufficient.
I made a removable section on my old layout using a couple of methods. I took the rails to the edge and used rail joiners (Peco rail). this required taking the chairs/spikes off one tie one side and two ties the other. The rail joiner could then be slid back out of the way. At one point, on the fixed side, I put in 2 brass flathead screws and soldered the rail to them. They were put back enough to get a rail joiner on. I didn't do it on the other side because the base was foam.

Thanks m and Wayne too, I am going to use 10mm bolts and the DCC Concepts alignment "dowels". I think that'll be more than robust for my purpose. I'm glad I posted the question to check my thinking and have some other advice. I really appreciate all the replies.
