Has anyone heard of the Bachman auto-reversing track?

[Anonymous]

Hi I just recently found via internet a Trolley car set with "auto reversing" track made by Bachmann, doing some research I found that you can buy "auto-reversing" track. Does this mean that the reversing function is on the tracks or is it on the trolley perse? If the function is on the track, can I use any trolley car? Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The reversing track has the circuitry built in so it will work with any locomotive. I think this only applies to DC though.

I have the On30 set ("O" trolley on "HO" track). This size set is self-contained (no transformer), with the electronics in the shed. It looks/works great on my "O" Christmas layout. It allows you to set the ammount of time you want the trolley to sit before reversing. I don't know how it compares with the "HO" set. Joe

So technically I could buy all the pieces and build one myself, instead of buying this  http://cgi.ebay.com/Bachmann-Reversing-Trolley-Car-TRAIN-Set-Main-Street-HO_W0QQitemZ250088259573QQihZ015QQcategoryZ19132QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem

Circuitron sells two different auto reverse boards you can wire up to any layout.  You simple use a trigger at each end of the track.  When the train trips the trigger it stops, waits, then reverses.

If you use DCC, you can check out the bit-switch, which allows dcc trains to make scheduled stops, reverse, etc (automatically).
