I have a 17 foot reverse loop with a siding coming off the loop and splitting into 2 sidings 6 and 8 foot long respectively. I'm assumimg that this loop and it's sidings will need more than one set of feeders coming off the output side of the AR1 due to the length. How do you get several feeders coming from the output side of AR1 when there is only two connecting points on the AR1? Do you run feeders off the set of feeders coming off the output side of AR1? This is HO scale. DCC Digitrax operating system.
You can:
Isolate the siding(s) from the reverse loop and run feeders from your regular buss line. No reason for the siding to be in the reverse loop. As far as the 17 foot reverse, run the wires from the AR-1 (like a buss line) and attach like feeders.
Or:
If you want the sidings to be in the reverse loop, just run the 2 wires from the AR-1 like a buss and attach feeders from it.

That is exactly what you do. I just connect all of the feeders for each rail together in a wire connector or butt splice and add one more feeder to the connection and run that single feeder to the output side of the AR-1.
