I have two mainlines, 6x14, a passing siding around the outer main curve on one end, two spurs(1 on each side off the inner main, and 72 inch radius switch on the upper left and one on the lower right.  The outer main works perfect and the passing siding as well.  the power wire connect on the inside of that loop.  They connect on the outside of the inner main.  The curve where the train runs fine when near the power connector on the inner until it gets to the spur, then the power dies, UNLESS I manually push another locomotive from the outer main onto the inner one then the entire inner loop lights up.  The train will make a continuous run USUALLY so long as the switch on the lower right is set for the train to move to the outer loop, since it is going the other direction it straightens the switch and if I switch it back the train will run, if I switch the outer one for the outer train to go forward, the inner train dies at the spur on the other side.  If the switch on the inner loop is set straight, the inner train dies.  What do I do to fix this?
