YD8008 and common return for operating turnout solenoids


 

I am currently controlling turnout solenoids (Peco) on dc with toggle switches on my layout. The common feed for each solenoid is connected locally to a common return wire and two longer wires feed back to the switch on a control panel.

I would like to change to dcc operation using YD8008 units. Is it possible to connect the common feeds on the YD8008 to a common return system or would I have to rewire each solenoid with 3 wires to the decoder?
I have over 30 turnouts to control so I would be using 3 x YD8008.

Thank you.
