Got the book so I thought about checking it out. [quote]QUOTE: Do those arrows stand for terminal joiners?[/quote] Yes [quote]QUOTE: wouldnt you need two pairs on the turnout line because you would need one for power to that line, and then one to give power to the turntable so you have power leading to the different tracks leading off the turntable.[/quote] The turnout line is NOT insulated from the main line, there are no insulating joiners, the turnout line thus has power running in it, the terminal joiners going from that line to the turntable is what powers it. But basically, what the diagram shows is that you just have to wire your turntable with the approach track which is powered.
