Reply to "Benchwork - Wiring - adding elevations"

Ok I am actually starting to wire track on the second main line trestle. It would have been great had I thought of how to wire the tracks on the trestle before I printed the trestles. Had to drill a couple of holes when they coud have been included in the design. Well lesson learned for the next layout. lol Hoping to get the block done and test run a loco or two, one MTH the other Lionel. This block includes a 30 degress Ross crossing which the one side is Mainline 2 and the other is the downtown trolley run. Not sure what needs to be taken into account for wiring power across the diamond, and should the diamond be powered. I would think the trolleys' pick ups may not span across the diamond. I saw a DPDT diagram from Ross but again not sure of the reasoning. Any help in this and all my other stumbling blocks is appreciated. Thanks John
