Non-Derailing for 4-Way Ross Custom Switch

You need to cut the innermost rails with a Dremel cut off wheel so they can be isolated near the frog.

Lehigh74,

Is there any additional wiring I need to do?  Attached is my spaghetti drawing of how I wired this 4-way.  It's not as complicated as it looks.  It just shows how I wired the 3" non derailing tracks on the right side.  I really appreciate your help.

After you cut the rails, just add wires from the isolated sections to your #1 switch machine.  Same as the non-derailing wiring for any switch.  If you look closely at my photo, you can see one of the added wires.

Thanks, Bob!  That is very helpful.  You have saved me a lot of time.
