NTS&B Trolley Bumpers Replaced

The original K-Line Super Streets bumpers were very realistic road barriers, but could not stand up to the forces of a trolley hitting them to change directions.  After multiple attempts to beef up the K-Line bumpers, I finally decided to replace them with Lionel 260 bumpers.  I had to make a modified Lionel track for each end that attaches to the Super Streets to power up the bumper lights.  On the end that is visible, I tried to incorporate the original K-Line barrier.  The other end is not really visible, so I did not try to disguise it.
