DCC.

Pretty much. I put one piece of insulated gap track per a friends suggestion. This did not work.

I am trying to achieve a loop and the track keeps shorting out.  I have put a 9" Power Terminal with Insulated Gap track (I have opened the gaps underneath the track) - with and without power to it and when the locomotive goes across the gap track, it still shorts out (either direction). Any help to cure this would be appreciated.

Did not get it.  Adjusted my spam filter.  Try again.

Sorry Joe, I did not.  I'm at palmisanom@sbcglobal.net

To recap, all I need is a couple of insulated gapped pieces of track near the turn-outs and no additional transformer power unit?

Will I need a separate Command unit to power the loop??

I have the Bachmann Digital Commander set with the EZ Command Control Center.  I'll try to upload a copy of the layout tomorrow.  Would the insulated gap track work instead of the auto-reversing track???

Sorry for the delay in responding. Out of town.  I have pretty much have a loop back on to itself.  I was told to pick up Backmann Auto Reversing Track, to no avail. Should I get a insulated gap track instead or will this even help? Treno

It's DCC.

I am a total rookie.  I have set up my HO layout and have made an inside  loop that shorts out.  I was told to pick up some auto reversing track to cure the problem.  This has done nothing.  How do you cure this??? Signed, Treno
