    Since the bridge takes it’s power from the aligned tracks (stub and approach) there is no need to even connect the Kato track power wire (the bridge rotation is powered through the flat connector) … by powering all the stub tracks the entire operation is now controlled via the DCC throttle and the turntable direction switch. Meaning that the turntable can be DCC by simply connecting power to the stub tracks ( the approach track is obviously bus powered already) and you can do away with the expense of the reverser.
