Reply to "DCS block wiring - revisit old questions"

Using Fastrack, I used 18 awg drops to 14 awg feeder wires from two terminal blocks, one for each fixed TIU channel. The feeders are OGR twisted pair wire connected to center rail and out side rails. I only have isolated rails for signals. Center rails are blocked, outside rails are not. I have about 12 blocks for each channel, with only sidings on toggles. I have 10s everywhere, only an occasional 9. The layout is a 20' X 16 U-shape with about one scale mile of track for each channel. This is what works for me. Barry's book was on the table all during construction.
