I have had the Digitrax Chief system installed on my layout since 1998 and really enjoy it. I have had no major problems and the ones I have had were my doing something wrong. Read your manual carefully. Its not a complicated system, but some things have to be done right for a reliable system. As ststed before make sure your bus wire is heavy enough. Also, I read somewhere about using a light or buzzer with a battery installed between Rail A and Rail B whan running your bus wires. If you cross them the light will light or you sill set off the buzzer. This will keep your wires separated while wiring the layout up eliminating any chance of shorts between rails.
