Joined: 06/03/2025(UTC) Posts: 6 Location: Utrecht, Utrecht		I recently bought a railroad crossing (second hand) but don't know if this little piece of metal is supposed to be connected on the contact rail and railroad crossing piece. If it is, how would I be able to connect it? Any answer's to either of my questions would be greatly appreciated

The first set of links are seriously broken and should be uploaded again using the "Manage/upload my pictures" button on the https://www.marklin-users.net/Home/Member link.

If not, then it may have been cut to make a contact track section for feedback use. It's the ground rail side of the track.

It's the ground rail side of the track. The item number of the contract track is 24995 and that of the railroad crossing is 74920. My trains do drive over it perfectly fine if that's what you're asking
