    Got some mixed feedback on this drawing on another site but wanted to get a second opinion before moving on and laying down these turnouts / crossovers....

    If I have the two sections of track in orange controlled by separate auto reversers to change the track polarity does anyone see any other potential issues? Each of those sections would be long enough to contain the entire train.

    Running DCC.

    Thanks in advance

    Nothing wrong, this should work perfectly. It is, conceptually, identical to what I did on the JACALAR. I reversed the two loops at the ends, and kept all the yards and other switching areas at the same polarity.

    Outstanding, thanks for the feedback. I was originally going to have the track polarity running the same way (pictured below) but it got to be too confusing with the reverser placement and those two crossovers between main 1 and main 2. Think I’m “back on track” now!

    Thanks again
    Steve
