Investigate some of the techniques that N-Track modular guys use... the concepts for alignment should be very similar. I've not ever built a folding layout but I have a few ideas how I might go about it. Only sure-fire tip I have is to get your benchwork (folding mechanism) rock-solid reliable with no slop first, or allow for required fine-tuning (leveling) adjustments. Then and only then should you install the track.
