How do I build a removable section track for entry.

a Geezer Gate?
Here is just one method.
If you have Cable or DSL,,,check out this video

Impressive. I wish he would have run a train over it just to see if there are any adverse affects when running over the gate. I wonder how he scribed an elliptical curve? What does that tool cost? :)

In the video how does that section get stable track power to each of the 4 rails
He didn't point it out in the video, but I got a couple of quick glimpses of a black cable, running in to the side of the gate (hinged side). Probably just soldered some small wires to the mainline track, ran them through a cable, and soldered the wires to the gate track.

you can see wires by the hinge
If you Google elliptical curve you'll get some good results.
It's really a simple mathematical curve that anyone can layout
with a pencil, string and a couple of pivot pins.
