I am new to railroading and am in the process of building a layout and am having trouble with my turnouts. My question is: Are the EZ-Track turnouts power routing or not. I have read some manuals that say they are not and some that say they are not. I have about 30 on my layout and when I check the voltage on some of them the current is not being routed to the track but rather stops at the frog. If they are not power routing I understand but if they are I don't know what is wrong.
They are definitely power routing.....
To improve their reliability...there's some previous threads about filing certain areas on the rails to prevent derailments, as well as some coloring and ballasting ideas if you choose to. Check 'em out!
