sbs,
You will need to give us a little more info before we can help you, are you running Legacy/DCS or conventional, do you have toggle switches for your sidings and what track & switches are you running?

Well I operate conventional and I have one toggle switch.For one power siding and I have gargraves and some atlas o gauge track.
The red dots near the switch on the center rail before the first curve at each end is where an insulating pin or joiner needs to be. Then when train one pulls in, you kill the power to the siding.

I have already have your picture here.I have saved it in my pictures.I followed your directions every thing is fine.I just now looked at the switch and noticed rust and
corrosion on the sides of the rails.I may have to find a way to clean it.
