I am constructing a small switching layout and want to have a means of running either DC or Rail Pro command control. I have six locomotives and will not be converting them all to Rail Pro immediately, thus I need both power sources. Rail Pro sells a power supply that is a continous 14 V (going on memory, could be wrong on V). The DC control is a basic DC power pack. How do I wire this so I can operate on DC only or Rail pro only?
Hi,
This:

DPDT (Double-Pole Double-Throw) Center-off type switch would give you the option of having the track power dead if needed or desired.
Good Luck, Ed
Awesome, thanks Ed! Exactly the information I needed! :-)
