Joe in the picture of the layout below #10 in the link of terry's post do you see any possible shorts if I was to use a dcc controller . I didn't really see anything that looped back into itself , where I would have to use a reversing module    I like the concept of that layout thanks mark f

Dear Mark,

You're welcome. 

You are correct, Sir.  No reverse loops. 

Terry T. did a great job putting that thread together.

Sincerely,

Joe Satnik

I'm glad someone can find some use for those layouts. I did it mostly to give people ideas for their own layouts.
I never got around to finishing my layout (#14).
I decided to go with the 4 different scale Christmas layout. I'll probably take that down after this year.
