Reply to "Wiring question for a newby electronics guy"

Well, I was at Lowes and some of this was marked down and with my vet discount it came out to almost reasonable, so I bought a small batch of wire to start out.  I'm figuring a loop (bus) of the white for track 1, and a loop of the red for track 2.  One loop of the Green wire for both of the other loops to use as a ground.  Based on my plan (see previous pics) I figure about 8 feeder drops per track, then 2 more drops per siding for the 6 sidings makes 12 more drops.  Total feeder drops should be about 28.   The 14 ga THHN for the bus, and the 16 ga primary wire for the feeders.  The roll of red/white 20 ga on the left is to power the 10 Ross switches probably in a home run setup. Powered off accy only new ZW-L.    I think.  Experts please steer me if I'm wrong.
