Also you'll need plastic joiners to seperate the siding from the main line. <br />simisal <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Don't do this or you will fry the command station. The programming track doesn't want to ever see track voltage while connected to the command station via the programming leads........Check out Joe Fugates' thread on DCC on the general forum for a thorough dicussion of wiring for programming tracks.....
