    I have many blocks on my N scale DC layout. Probably many more than I need but hey I love engines so I need places to park them. However I do not have enought room to line up the six Atlas A/B selector switches all in a row. I was thinking I could two rows of them but am wondering how to connect the end of one row with the beginig of the other. I'm assuming just running wires from them would work. (the same wires that I'm using for the track feeders) but I know that the easy logical solution isn't always the right one. Anyone know how to solve this? Does this post make any sence? lol.
    Thanks

    I'm not familiar with Atlas switches as I use commercial switches for my control panel but what you described seems the right option.

    I am. I am a bit TOO familiar with them.

    Where they have the double jumpers on the left and right side to connect them to each other, just run a wire from the upper right of the last one to the upper left of the next one. Repeat for the bottom right and bottom left.

    You may rest assured that the above information is accurate. It is the other stuff I don't know.
