    Hi all, hoping that one of you guys with good dcc wiring knowledge can help out - i've posted a question over on the dcc and electronics forum, but i notice that that forum doesnt' get much traffic.

    please take a look!

    thanks in advance,
    Ray

    If you have DCC all you need is one of these babies. They only have 4 wires and are very simple and work great!

    Your reverse loop should be longer than your longest train on your layout.

    Lonestar:

    The reverse loop wiring for DCC is very easy. Don't make it difficult.

    There are only four wires to connect to the reverse loop module.

    Two go outside the loop and two connect inside the loop.
