The Z 4000 runs the track & switches and Z1000 is connected to a Ross Custom Switches Turntable.  When the engine comes on the Turntable all kinds of sparks from the wheels and the Remote doesn't stop the engine on the Turntable  or the whisker tracks into the Roundhouse.  The back wall of the RH does.  The Z4000 operate the Whiskers & RH tracks.  Barry's book suggested a separate Power source.  Z1000 is the Power source.  Is another TIU needed?

You mentioned the whisker tracks are powered by the Z4000. What is the Z1000 powering on the turntable ?  If it’s the rails on the bridge. Yes you would need another channel with Z1000 as the in power source.  

Can you go into a little more detail of your setup. Not stopping on the whisker tracks sounds like a signal issue. If your using toggle switches. It could be something as simple as the switch corrupting the signal.
