Hi,

 

   I added two 022 switches to my loop including the two insulating pins on the inner track, but I do not have the power supply pins in use yet.  The train would not budge, so I replaced the insulating pins with steel and then the engine moved.  I noticed that when the engine hit the switch there was a powr interupt and the engine started to change directions.  Is this reversing caused by the lack of me using the power supply pin from a fixed voltage post on my power supply?

 

   Thank you,

 External wires do not matter, put the insulating pins in their proper spots and tell us if the center rail is dead or one of the outer rails is dead then perhaps we can help with a solution. The three center rails are all hooked together and should all be live to your track common, the straight thru common rail, the inner common rail without the plastic pin with the flat piece that goes thru the frog, and the outer curved common half without the plastic pin should all be live with the center rail with power applied to the track
