Hello all;
I have a situation and need help.

Situation:  I have mt DCC equipped HO motorized TT.  on 'track' 4 I have 1 3in. piece and 4 15in. pieces.  attached to the curves is a #5 switch.  I have standard switches on either end of the loop that feed into the #5 switch.

I had everyting connected, sans reverse loop module, and had a short.  After running a few tests I decided I need at least one Reverse loop. 

Do I need one at BOTH ends of the #5 switch?

Thanks to all in advance.

HO / Product number 44592

I 'recently' purchased to adore mentioned assortment pack. overall a good investment.  HOWEVER, there is always a however, the smaller pieces (.5 and .75) are not usable.  the prongs that connect the roadbed are longer than the piece of track.  the gap left between pieces is just right for derailments.  It seems to me that the only way to use these smaller pieces is to break off all or part of the prong on all connected pieces and let the joiners do the work of holding the pieces.
Now I could be completely wrong on this.  Anyone able to use the .5 and .75 WITHOUT ant modifications?

Odd marketing.  One needs to break something in order to use it.  Or did I get a weird batch.

General Discussion / Removing rail joins from E-Z Track
November 07, 2012, 11:31:01 AM
I did a quick search on removing rail joins from e-z track.  I attempted this using needle nose pliers and only succeeded in pulling out the entire rail.  I need to replace the joins on the e-z track with code 83 - 100 joins for my swing bridge.

As always and all help is genuinely appreciated.

Sincerely,
