Hi Tom, The Walthers Cornerstone turntables have reversing built in. When wired correctly, you do not need an automatic reversing module. The key is wiring it right. Look at the diagram on my website

Since the turntable is controlled by electronics, there probably is no simple way to convert the TT to operate with a couple of push buttons. Fortunately, I think I have a simpler solution for you. Yo

Hi Greg, There is a DCC company called CVP products, (cvpusa.com) You might want to contact CVP. But before you do, the easy thing to try is resetting the decoder. Put the loco on a programming track

Jeremy, I think you are describing an oval with a diagonal reversing track. Go to my website and scroll down for a picture of this. https://wiringfordcc.com/track_2.htm#reversing If this is what you h

Greetings everyone, I have just added an oval with a crossover to the introduction to reversing sections in my website at: https://www.WiringForDCC.com/track_2.htm#reversing Allan Gartner Wiring for D

Hi Jim, Peco Electrofrogs, at least in recent history, has a wire attached to the frog that you can solder to, so that you don't have to solder to the frog. Of course, the Electrofrog is being phased

Crossovers on model railroads are frequently connecting tracks in a folded dog bone track plan. Is that the case in your railroad? The polarity is reversed in going across the crossover. For more info

Hi Marvin, You mention that you want to throw turnouts via accessory commands. Would you ONLY be generating those accessory commands from the Mini-Panel? Or would you maybe also throw turnouts via you

Hi Jim, You have received two answers as a way to indicate that your track power is off to the locomotives. Either will work. Do you understand what you need to do? Or do you need more detail? We can

Hi Tony, The fact that you sent the message below tells me that you joined and you have figured out how to send a message to it. W4DCCQA is the Wiring for DCC Question and Answer Forum. It is for Digi

Hi Lawrence, The track plan you loaded is under the topic Dbl Xvr Auto Reversers. I think people are confused as I don't see a double crossover in your drawing. If all you are asking is the autorevers

Tom, You used the word siding. Does it go anywhere else? If not, you can probably feed the siding from the same auto reverser (Tam Valley reverses) that powers the loop. Allan Gartner Wiring for DCC

All, I have made a couple of additions to the Wiring for DCC Website: 1. Link to Evan Designs. They provide a wide variety of miniature LEDs useful to the model railroader. 2. The new Walthers DCC Fri

Hi Perry, I'm glad to know people are reading my column. Sorry if the September column ruined your day. As far as using the Atlas signal system, I am not an expert on it's use. I just read up on it fo

Bob, It sounds like you have a bunch of things going on. There are a number of things I recommend that very few people want to do. Double gap everything. Electrically it USUALLY isn’t necessary; which

Hi Bob, Is your BD-20 before the PSX-AR? If so, that is your problem. The PSX-AR draws a little bit of power all the time and will cause the BD-20 to show the block as being occupied. If you are using

Bill, I believe you said that your BD20 was not detecting a train in the block. The pot is for desensitizing the BD20. So that may not help you. I did notice in the BD20 instructions where it says it

Hi Bill, If you haven't tried it already, try putting more than one turn through your BD20. Literally just loop it around and go through it again. This increases sensitivity of the BD20. I don't think
