<p>"Wiring - Connect the two yellow wires to the reverse loop section and the two red wires to the main line section as shown."</p><p>I am confident that I have done this (but I may be wrong...)</p><p> In my original post, I forgot to add a sentence. It should have read:</p><p>I then disconnected the power, and disconnected the reverse module. I plugged the Command Station back on and the green light came on and I was able to run the locomotive. Placing the locomotive inside the reversing loop also worked fine. <strong>I then disconnected the power to the Command Station and reconnected the reverse module with the two red wires going to the mainline and the two yellow wires going to the track in the reverse section.</strong> But when I plugged the Command Station into the power, the green pilot light on the Command Station still failed to go on. </p><p>It seems that as soon as I connect the reverse module to the layout I am shorting out the entire system and the Command Station fails to turn on.</p><p>Hope this helps clarify the problem. Fascinating! </p>
