Track/Electrical Help
Posted by fire481 on Sunday, November 30, 2008 9:13 AM

I have a twin dog bone set up. I want to have a cross over at one point so I can better utilize the inside track sidings etc. I am wired for DCC. I have tried using 4 switches together to make the cross over and its not working. I am wondering if I use a Walther 8812 which is a crossover but it has the necessary isolators etc. Will this work for my application. Any help would be greatly appreciated.   GENE S.

I could use some more information. What happens when you put in the turnouts? Could it be that you are creating a reverse loop?
