Electrical question(s)
Hi Team. It appears that I may have "shorts" somewhere in my layout (around my points(?). Sometimes, my locos are working fine (around a point), but the next loop around my track, it "shorts" out. By "shorts", I mean it stops for a second, then starts again. Sometimes, the "short" may be in a straight section. Its like the entire layout doesn't work smoothly or consistently, or there is a electrical problem. I cleaned all the layout (especially the points) multiple times, etc. Is there a module (or something) that keeps electricity consistent around the entire layout (including points), or is there anything I can do to fix? I hope this makes sense.

Chris,
This is almost impossible t diagnose from a distance. I would suggest to remove everything from the layout, and run one loco only. If it runs fine, then add another loco at a time till the problem reoccurs. Set that loco aside and continue. It may be only one loco. Only add cars after all the problems have been fixed.

ok, thx for the advice.
Chris.
Let me know if that works. Since the short appears everywhere, it most likely a loco or a car having a bug. Are all zour locos having the problem or all?
