Reply to "Good Layout Flaw? Huh!"

I just re-read RickO's reply and have some more information to report.

The voltage drop occurs in the outer main line reverse loop on the plywood board on the far left side of the layout.

There is also an inner main line reverse loop on the same plywood board on the same section of the layout.

There is no voltage drop and the locomotive does not slow down on the inner main line loop there. The voltage drop and locomotive slow down only occurs on the outer main line loop there.

The coal dump cars are parked on an independently powered siding that is turned off. Those cars on that siding do not draw any power from the main line tracks. Arnold
