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

John I am sure you got this! If it was easy it wouldn't be fun! Plus it keeps the mind fresh. Who needs some mind pills to keep your mind in good shape, just start a RR! Lol 😆
