Track is Atlas. no switches. Wire from transformer/controller to TIU is a RailKing wire harness (the same you get with an MTH set) and the lock on is the Atlas rail joiner lock on, attached straight to the TIU by the wires that come with it...not sure what gauge wire exactly...seems to be the same as the MTH wire. It's a very small loop on a 4 by 8 platform with O-45 curves and five 10" straights in between. Do you think I need another power connection to the track (ie a terminal block from TIU) or just a larger transformer, or perhaps both?
What is an engine cap problem exactly? Are there any other symptoms besides lash-up behavior? None of the locos go silent immediately when power is cut...though I'll check again to confirm.
