I bought 2 terminal pieces of track yesterday so I can wire the reversing loop module.
I installed the reversing loop module and began running a locomotive to test the track in the Coaldale Yard. There appear to be three types of problem. One involves some stalling of the locomotive in the area where most of the switches are located. I replaced all of the joiner strips in this area of the layout and that seemed to help, but there are still some problems here.
The second involves the operation of the locomotive as it enters the reversing loop. I am not sure of this at the moment. It may be part of the first problem, then again, there may by a problem with the logic of the reversing loop.
And the third involves the connection of the DCC controller to my power bar. It is difficult to get a firm connection. I am not sure what is causing this at the moment.
