British narrow gauge (esp. Southwold and W&LLR)
In the days before I went dead rail, I bonded all my rail joints with soldered jumpers.
As my garden is north facing and some parts are almost continually damp, I couldn't rely solely on fishplate rail joiners. The occasional dry solder joint confirmed this after a while.
For remote points operation, I used 1.5mm twin and earth cable which is still in use after nearly twenty years.
