Like I said before, if it's a single transformer on a layout with no other power coming in, don't worry about polarity, it will make no difference. The only time you have to worry about polarity is if you have multiple transformers, Also, if you're using a transformer with whistle and/or bell controls, then you have to have it right for the controls to work.
