Reply to "Re: Ross 175 Double Cross Over"

Thanks for your suggestions, finally had some time today to work on the switch. Have not completed the continuity test because  I misplaced my tester; plan to buy a new one tomorrow. Disconnected the 1008 relay and now 2 of my locomotives, (new Lionel Berkshire 765 Legacy and older Odyssey Blue Comet),  work fine when going across the switch in all directions. The Lionel Legacy Heavy Mikado works fine most of the time,  occasionally it loses volume when crossing the switch but it does not stall. Would think that is related to tmcc losing power/connection, the reduced volume does not always happen in the same location, it normally occurs before crossing the diamond.  The Lionel Legacy Light Mikado always stalls, it does not short out the power, or shut down, it just stalls at the center of the diamond. If I reverse directions, it will back off the diamond but stalls again if I try to go forward across the diamond.  Will try and do the continuity test tomorrow, also wondering if it would be prudent to have each loop (3 of them) on it's own bus wiring right now all loops are on a single bus.

Thanks again for all of your assistance.
