Reply to "Ross Custom Switches"

The issue I see is that all your outer rails are broken by plastic frogs except for the one rail that goes past the station. Even with ross ready switches, I'd be dropping power feeds everywhere (at least between each pair of switches) in that section of track, to avoid the very problem you have now. I think you just have too many breaks in the rail continuity for the power to make it everywhere.  



Are both loops on a single transformer handle? If not then insulate the center rail in the crossover. You dont want to double feed it.

If you're using 2 transformers then you do need to check the phase (does the AC wave go "up or down" first). If theyre opposite, then they're "out of phase", but if they're out of phase, you usually get an arc welder (double voltage), not a zero.
