If you're running two turnouts connected directly to one another I'm leaning towards @DoubleDAZ suggestion that your problem is with the turnout wiring. IIRC Realtrax turnouts that are wired together require a jumper wire from the ground of one to the ground of the other ...possibly at the center area's frog. When Realtrax first came out I had the similar experience of an arc and circuit break whenever a train crossed one switch to the other. When I mentioned this to MTH (Jeff S?) at York 2001 his separate jumper wire suggestion solved the problem.
