I am ready to start laying down track. I will give as much info as possible for an easy cure to my issue. I know you guys can do it.
Below are the last pics I took today after finishing the Homosote Boards and my Pop Out drop In box. We are going to put our farm in that area.
OK..I am using Fastrack. I am going to have 2 separate tracks controlled by two separate controllers. I am using 2 Z1000 transformers and controllers. ALL my current locomotives are Proto-Sound 1.
I would like to have both tracks join together with switch tracks, but I still want to be able to use both trains at the same time, possibly going in different directions. I will also have 2 or 3 sides in this layout. It was suggested to me that I should have the sides continue into either track One or Two instead of ending at Bumpers. I can go either way on this topic.
My concern is how do I wire the tracks so the two different trains running will not effect each other. And finally how do I park the used trains in the sides and then tell the other two trains it's OK to get on track one and track two. This complete setup will be ALL conventional.
Maybe down the road I will move up to Proto-Sound 3 and possibly move to Remote Control, but just not today.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Easy as pie..Right !!
I await your help.
