Russ, That is somethin' ! I've done the same on my layout in the picture posted ! Amazing how similar modeling and prototype can be . Joe :thumb:

I simply cropped out the grade crossing which seemed to be construed as the double-crossover - - not !!

Brian, How about this ? Better ? :rolleyes:

Here you go guys, another sample of a double crossover !

Miles, You might try this on your flywheel/crankshaft problem. Many times I've made this work. Pick up some of that white Teflon tape at your local hardware store. Wrap as snug as you can around the shaft and trial fit until it's snug and a small drop of super glue ! The tape centers the...

Voted for Atlas, own many more atlas, little or no problems at all, just personally prefer the seniority and quality for years now !

Well, Lynn, you certainly provoked a lot of thought anyway. Shows we are all paying attention, hey ? Joe

Jim, I think it might be your dial-up. My DSL is just "rumbling right along ". Joe :rolleyes:

Cab, I'd bet my next pension check that NJ International didn't do that wiring job. I'd bet some one with not much experience did it. There is a wire #32 I believe that is somewhat thicker than carpet thread, that most of us that build, rewire or assemble our own signals normally use. If any...

3-track crossing protection Espee, :wave: I recently installed a 3 track crossing protection system made with Circuitry by " Logic Rails Technologies " . It operates absolutely prototypical. The people at Logic Rail were a great help by designing the photo cell schematics to produce proper...

Car checker !

Help us guys, are we seeing it differently or what ? The left turnout taken diverging is not reversing direction but transferring the train via a folded figure eight seemingly to Change the direction but continuing on to the original starting point does not . Help, Help, Helphamrhamrhamrhamr

Harold, I don't want to beat a dead horse but no matter which glasses I wear, the left turnout taken straight will make a complete but folded circle. If the same turnout is taken diverging it makes a crossover to the outside track. Maybe a poll could be taken. This is one heck of a track plan...

Harold, I agree with Fred, I see no reversing loops as it is drawn now. I'm getting " Old " too ! But age is no excuse ! Joe :rolleyes:
