That is a pretty good solution for your project, DVDdoug.
I guess that you got a very sturdy connection just by using the heat shrinks.
I also love these European terminal blocks. They give you freedom to change things over, specially on a model railroad layout.
As I said at first, I am trying to avoid soldering these particular connections because I want flexibility otherwise your solution would be exactly the right one for me too. 
Thank you, DVDdoug.
BTW: Why the DVD? Do you also like to watch movies, like me? 8)
