@William 1 posted:Just throwing it out here, for some guys who don’t want to open up their engine, ERR makes a relay that give track power to the middle rail depending on direction and it works really well to not lose power to the engine when crossing a Ross switch.
All my longer curved switches, and the double-slip switches, have the DZ-1008 relay to energize the dead rails. That's obviously not enough for close coupled rollers on many tenders. The only cure I know of is opening them up and applying a fix similar to this one.
