After a long hiatus, I am finally building an 027 door layout out of track I’ve accumulated over the years for my twin boys. I am planning on a long spur in the center of layout to park trains or run a reversing motorized unit. My question is how should I place insulating pins between the 1022 switches to isolate the center branch from the main loop? Center rail and side rails? My idea is to add an extra lock on to this spur with a switch wired to the center rail feed to cut it in or out as necessary. I am using the 1022s simply because they are all I have and I am trying to keep things under budget. I am using an LW to power the tracks and an R to power lights and accessories.
