hi George

my concern is if a car or engine with dual pickup rollers bridges 2 power districts. This in effect would parallel 2 unlike transformers with a 22 gauge wire.

This wire can not take the amperage to drive a train and the sine waves of the Bricks and Z4000 are different and can not be properly phased. This could be an issue with the transformer outputs and would not be breaker protected.

If there is no danger of this then it would not be a problem. Maybe I am missing something in the track plan.
