Hi all. Well, I got my trains running now but still have a hangup at one turnout because of a reverse loop. I bought an Atlas twin and have read books over and over until I know them by heart, but still can't get the polarity control I need. My problem is that I can't determine which is the "correct" main line and reversing loop, as dumb as that may sound. My track makes several loops and comes back down on double tracks that connects into one, but I have tried to hook up the twin following the directions on the package and reading Andy Sperandeo's electrical book, but still my engine stalls at this one turn out. I have made my rail gaps as Andy insisted, but I am still stuck. So...is there a way to determine which track (or tracks) I should connect the DPDT twin to? Your advice is most appreciated. JP
