Hi guys, I'm looking for some advice on wiring a 6 track yard using a 6 position selector switch (double pole I think, but not sure). I have it set up similar to this...
/----- 1 /-d------ 2 /-b--------- 3--a----c------- 4 \-e---- 5 \--- 6I'm looking for a way to control this so that selecting track 1 will move points a, b, & d only,track 2 moves points a, b, & d only as well but with d flipped the other way, etc...
Any help would be appreciated.

Without knowing the exact nomenclature of the switch you have, it's impossible to offer advice. What might be a better choice in your case is a diode matrix circuit.
Perform a couple of Google searches for a diode matrix and you can come up with examples, such as:

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I'm using tortise motors to switch the points.....
