THANKS AND MORE HELP

[NW Modeling List]

Many thanks to those who explained that N&W sand towers were a dark color, as in the photo.
 
Another frustration that I'm sure others have encountered - laying Shinohara flex track with code 83 rail joiners.  Is there some trick to getting them one juuuuuust a bit easier?  I spend an inordinate amount of time with small pliers and too often end up with the joiner stuck in my thumb about 3 inches!
 
I grabbed some old code 100 joiners and they went on REAL easy, but I'm worried that electical conductivity will suffer.
 
Any ideas?
