Bob, <br /> <br />First, I think it would be wise for you to wire it for blocks and connect it all to the main power pack. Then later you could change it to multi-cab operation with little fuss. <br /> <br />I can't tell you if you can do without blocks without knowing two things. Are you using 'All Live' turnouts or 'Power Routing' turnouts? Atlas turnouts are 'All Live' and would be the type to use if you don't want to wire it for blocks. You almost have to wire a layout for blocks when you use 'Power Routing' turnouts. Next, does your plan include any kind of reversing section? If it does, you will have to include some blocks to take care of that problem. <br /> <br />Good Luck - Ed
