Thank you, Tom, for the update……
On Saturday, I mentioned how the Trackers were “runners” and paid less
attention to scenery over “running”. There is a video of a Tracker set-up in
Kensington, MD at the end of this thread to demonstrate what typical Tracker
Modules look like…..

We worked today to make further revisions to the wiring on the yard lead.
When switches are set to bring trains out of the yard to the outer mainline,
any trains approaching on the Inner Mainline (either clockwise or
counterclockwise) will lose power before they reach the crossover on the
inner mainline. There is no guarantee that you won't still hit the train
leaving the yard. It is still possible; dependent upon train speed, and/or
coasting settings for your locomotive. YOU will still need to PAY ATTENTION
when trains are leaving the yard! We have done everything possible
ELECTRICALLY to help avoid problems. IF your trains reaches this dead track,
it is technically an uncontrolled power outage. You will need to regain
control of your locomotive.
We will have blank NTSB Report Forms available for your use when a collision
occurs. Please take pictures. Forms (in triplicate) may be submitted to any
club board member.
