[OT] Sorry For Off-topicness

Hey all, I'm kind of in a bind and not sure where to turn (I've been 
searching online w/o much luck, it took me nearly three hours to find 
what I was looking for to start with).

Here's the deal:

I've been tasked with setting up some antique O27 Lionel's (from the 
50's) by my uncle for my nephew. I've got almost everything except a 
Lock-On (to bring power to the rails from the transformer, a Lionel 
1033; finding the lock-on took me 3 hours because I didn't know what I 
was looking for aside from "power to rails from track" essentially). 
Right now I'm looking for a non-destructive hackity-hack that will both 
bring power to the rails and allow the train free passage around the 
track (I've been doing some tests with test-lead clips to little success).

This only has to work for tomorrow, afterward I can order the Lock-On 
and wait for it to arrive.

Thanks, and once again sorry for the off-topicness.
