The main thing to watch out for is reverse loops, which it sounds like you don't have if the two lines are connected only by the crossovers. So I assume that the two lines are not electrically isolated (with insulated joiners) and you are using 1 power pack. <br /> <br />Better yet, not to be funny, but your best bet would be to buy one of the manuals - Atlas has an excellent book on wiring for less than $10. It gives you all the basics of wiring. It seems to me that if you plan on using dcc then your initial dc wiring should remain simple, i.e. your not creating blocks or anything like that.
