Ditto on getting the PSX-AR.  You can control more than one reversing section with the same unit.  You just can't have  two trains bridging the gap and exactly the same time.  Depending on the size and number of trains you plan on running, the odds are generally slim of that happenning.

Get one of the PSX-AR products from Tony's Trains.  They work perfect with NCE every time.

  The PM42 will work, but you will not be able to configure it unless you have Digitrax throttle to plug into the Loconet port.  The Digitrax AR-1 will work(you will need one for each reverse loop).  There are several DCC reversing controllers available.

Digitrax modules on a NCE system
Posted by MIHIATSF on Friday, March 19, 2010 1:11 PM

I have 3 reversing loops on a new layout with a NCE system, what's the best and cost effective way to manage them.  Digitrax offers a module with 4 separate functions for reverse loops and/or circuit breaking.  Will it work on a NCE system, if so how?   And what's with this the loconet?
