Re: Seeking reversing section input
While there are many tracks, if you print out the track plan and look at it carefully, you'll see it comes down to a mainline oval, with a yard connected as a wye at F, with multiple tracks for each

Re: Seeking reversing section input
I've uploaded pdf scans to the Files area. I couldn't find Nick's layout folder, so just dropped them in the Files folder. Perhaps someone could move them for me to the folder for Nick's layout. Don

Re: Seeking reversing section input
Tim, I don't understand why you have made the reversing sections where you have, unless you're trying to equalize the loads on the power districts, and the Autoreverser is your fourth district. Most

Re: Seeking reversing section input
Nick, it might help to do a schematic of the layout so you (and everyone else) can see the track connections without all the convolutions. As far as reversing sections go, it might be best to make the

Re: Seeking reversing section input
Nick, OK, I see now how you can go thru the same piece(s) of track in two directions - but always running forward.? Those pieces are from A to B.? If you are on 'the loop' (the track that is C,D,E,F

Re: question on a BD20
Bob, It sounds like you have a bunch of things going on. There are a number of things I recommend that very few people want to do. 1. Double gap everything. Electrically it USUALLY isn¡¯t necessary;

Re: question on a BD20
Thanks for the reply, Allan. The reversing section and A ¨C G have separate busses going to different circuit breakers, a psx-ar and a psx. As far as I can tell, there is no electrical connection

Re: Seeking reversing section input
Thank you, Tim. I'm trying to understand your recommendation. I do have two existing PSX-ARs I can re-use. Are you suggesting eliminating the two turnouts altogether, or simply ending the reversing

Re: question on a BD20
Hi Bob, Is your BD-20 before the PSX-AR?? If so, that is your problem.? The PSX-AR draws a little bit of power all the time and will cause the BD-20 to show the block as being occupied. If you are

Re: Do any track power boosters have a phase control input?
Don This goes back to my question midsummer, "does anyone know of a solid state DPDT reverser that can be controlled externally?", because I have a large section(but not large enough to be served by a

Jerry, I agree lighting isn't that important, although I'd like to have it. Two other concerns: * My old Athearn passenger cars all came with wheelsets having one metal wheel and axle, and one plastic
