<p>wilso44512,</p> <p>the MRC Tech 6 controller is not a DCC controller, but a DC controller, which allows you to adjust the sound in your DC operated sound locos. So you are running your layout on DC and not DCC.</p> <p>All you need to "park" your loco while you are running the other one is a section of track where you can cut the power, without disconnecting the track. For this, you need to gap one rail, and connect the power via a switch - just like in the following diagram:</p> <p><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/Track.jpg" style="max-width: 550px;" border="0" /></p> <p> </p>
