[8D]Hey guy's <br />I wrote three weeks ago with a question about a problem I had with current to my BNSF branchline. The problem was (and still is) this: When a loco enters the branch (just off the switch) There seems to be a dead spot until it reaches the insulated rail joiners, when I would place the loco on the other side of the rail joiners the polarity would run the opposite direction [xx(]!! It is not a reversal loop either!!!! I'm just at a loss on what the problem can be.I took out the insulated rail joiners replace the with regular rail joiners only to have a short on the whole branchline[xx(]! DOES ANYONE HAVE AN ANSWER[?]I would hate to have to take out the whole branch line. Part of it is modeled closely to the Keddie Wye in California. <br /> Thanks <br /> TrainsRMe[;)]
