I should be more helpful, the entire loop must be isolated and have its OWN reversing switch, seperate from the rest of the layout, and supplied by DC before the other reversing switch. Once the train enters the isolated loop, and is moving along, then you reverse the direction of the OTHER switch feeding the rest of the layout...That way, when the engine is leaving the islated loop, the 'direction' of the rest of the layout is reversed and will accept the locomotive as it enters. All is clearly illustrated in the book I mentioned above. <br />Jennifer
