Just asking.  Not trying to show my obvious lack of knowledge.  If I run a second TIU from the wall plug at the back of the room and hook that one with drops to track pieces at the back of the room, would that help generate more efficient power to the track?  My shade tree electrician theory is that if I have 18 good volts coming from both directions, they would meet in the middle and the long runs would become in a sense, short runs.  Am I making any sense or have I gone completely off the 'rails'?

First-your TIU is not generating any Current or Power-it’s only passing the Current/Power from your Power Supply-and adding the DCS signal onto the conductor. 

As far as adding another TIU

Do you have more than 300’ on one Fixed output with more than 5 Engines?
