When building a yard ladder is it acceptable to place your turnouts end to end or should there be some track in between the turnouts, if so what would the recommended track length be in OO scale?? ?

Hi Blair, I'll wait until you post your diagram.? You are right, the rule about avoiding adjacent reversing units is a good one. Allan

I am not seeing any T-25 staples with plastic to prevent shorting if the metal breaks through the insulation.? As long as only one wire is run under them it is not a problem but it seems like it is

Allan My problem is a bit more complicated.?? I think I'll generate a picture and post it later, it will explain things better. Essentially, if an area served by 3 or 4 PSX breakers must all be

Hi Blair, For people that have some form of electronic circuit breakers and need reversing, think about products like the PSX-AR that has both in one unit.? The obvious advantage is that they are

Sorry for the tardy reply, but I must report that I've seen this problem for quite some time on my RR, which includes about 18 PSX and 4 PSXAR devices.? Upon reporting it to Tony's and asking for a

I have two large staging yards.? They are accessed via two parallel tracks that enter an optional crossover - trains can go straight through either side of the crossover, or can cross over.? This

Thanks.? We use diluted carpenter's yellow, haven't had a problem yet but detection is just arriving on scene - I've been relying on just checking bus-to bus-resistance so far, for the little bit

"My T-25 is my friend." John, Totally agree.? I came across mine last fall in a box of tools that came from my Father-in-law's shop.? I had always been unhappy with either using a T50 stapler

It would be nice if Digitrax would update their PM42 to solid state with screw terminals. They could call it PM52 and charge $10 more for it. One of the reasons I went with the PSX’s is because they

There were several products in the past made of organic material. Ground pecan shells or some such. Bad. We use a rock product, not sure the latest vendor. (Lots of vendors come and go over 30

Thank you for this, Allan.? I currently have four PM42 units installed.? My next expansion would have added two, possibly four depending on how power hungry staging gets, but I have been considering

PSX users with Digitrax equipment: I wish I had remembered this sooner.? When I set up my PSX's, I had problems.? After checking everything I could, I contacted DCC Specialties.? It turns out when

I solved the problem finally! The PSX instruction manual states that when there is a short, D12 led should stay on and not flash. My D12 was flashing on and off, which the instruction manual indicated

Thomas Thomas, What ballast material, and what glue type, are you using?? I ask because I suspect some metallic materials present in ballasts may introduce a better electrical path particularly when

Use ballast sparingly. Lots of issues if you use too much! Just to top of sleepers is almost too much. Should not cover the ties at all. And keep away from turnouts!!! If it does not touch the rails,

Jim, It happens only when he shorts one loop out.? I think the cycling is just the DCS retries. Blair

Having built a large Scale S layout, I made certain all my turnout frogs were wired through Tortise Switch Machines. As a result, I have had no problems with locomotives stalling at the turnout's

Just a thought Have you tried unhooking all wires except the dcs to the PSX to the 2 loops. Return all devices to their default settings. Do your shorting of a loop and test all devices voltages. The

Robert, This sounds more like two cabs on the same address ... Jim
