Hi, All;

I'm in the process of setting-up my new 12x8 folded dogbone layout.

Track is 100% Atlas, so no common connection between the outside rails.

I'm adding center-rail (hot) feeders every 6 sections of track.

My question is: Do I run feeders to BOTH outside rails every 6 sections, or just alternate such that there's an outside rail connection every 12 sections. (Trying to clarify - run one outer feeder, then run the OTHER outside feeder about 6 sections later.)  I'll then have a common-rail feeder every 6 sections, but it will only be on ONE of the outside rails.

Second question:  I'm running convention and TMCC only. Should I run the "carrier" connection to only one outside rail, or to BOTH outside rails, since there's no connection between the two. On my older, smaller, layout, I only did it on ONE outside rail.

Thanks;
