Title: Wiring question
Post by: Deland on October 17, 2016, 11:58:08 AM
[ihttp://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm14/PanelDeland/e73f138c-b4fc-4b92-a089-696c3813e1f7.png][/i] I "think" I may have this figured out but I wanted to run it by those on here who really know. I'm thinking I need to address a "reverse Loop" situation where the black dots are. I'm assuming I can isolate at the dots and put an auto rverser from one of the tracks to that isolated section and it should run. Am I right?

By the looks of it you do have a reverse loop and can be solved with an auto reverse module.
If others see differently chime in......

On your layout design you will have to cut and insulate your own gaps and hard wire the reverser in. Bachmann has a revere module track designed for easy installation but it requires 2- 9''sections where the gaps would be,  another problem is once your reversed there is no other way to get back to the original route.
