JUMPER OR FEEDER LINES
In many large layouts it is frequently found that the train slows down
when it reaches the part of the track which is farthest from the transformer.
This can be remedied by using another track terminal a t that point and
running feeder wires from the one terminal to the other, being sure that the
BASE POST
clips are connected with one wire and the other two clips are
connected together with a second wire. See Fig. 13. Be sure both
BASE
POST
clips are fastened to the same rail.
Be sure this method is used when using an airchime whistle control box
and do not run jumper wires direct from the transformer.
REVERSE LOOPS
In designing and wiring layouts, some people have encountered difficulty
in the attempt to incorporate a reverse loop. This is a convenient method of
reversing the direction of travel of the train. Therefore, we have packaged a
No.
698
Reverse Loop Kit, which contains the necessary double pole,
double throw switch, terminals, fiber pins, and wires to conveniently wire up a
reverse loop. Note Fig. 14 for wiring diagram.
It is
necessary to remove the steel
pins from the six places marked
“X”
and replace them with fiber pins; then
wire according to the diagram, Let
us
now assume the train is running forward
