How do you find the Electrical section of Railway Questions?

We don't yet have a main category for ''Railway" questions and there is not yet a special section for "Railway electrical" questions either. Please ask any questions you want and put them under 'Wiring & Electricity' for now. Other contributors will then be able to see them and, hopefully, will be able to answer them too. If ever we get some questions on those topics we would certainly see if we can create a new category for them. So please go ahead and ask!
