Problems with Broadway and Lionel

I have a problem with the Broadway Limited Locos of which I have several. If there is a short anywhere in the block whether by the BLI or another loco the BLI units do not reset when power is restored. The manual seems to refer to this by adviseing to "cut the loco power to reset". Since I also use DCC I have not found a way to cut power without tilting the BLI loco off the track. I have yet to read any reference to this anywhere so maybe I'm missing something. All my BLI locos have the problem, not one of my other locos have this problem. Let me go on to say except,for this problem, I am extremely pleased: with the detail and paint, with the running ability, and with the pulling power of the BLI units. I too use PECO switches with the frogs wired and have no problems with locos shorting or loss of contact. <br />I hope someone will respond to this. <br />Ortice Atlanta, Ga
