Reverse loop help - joefryfry - 02-08-2009

Sorry to post in general, but I really need some input. Please see the last couple posts about the reverse loop here http://www.the-gauge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=352 on my layout. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Joeff....I believe the reverser modules have an adjustment to control how fast the reverser responds. Does yours..? And I think the command station also has a CV that can be adjusted for this purpose.
The nearness of the turnout to the gaps doesn't really have anything to do with it....
Hope you get a fix for it....

P.D. - That little train really zips around...'bout 150 mph....

The modules don't seem to have any adjusments, but I will have to look at the DCC instructions. I ran the train quickly to keep the video short. I normally run my trains pretty slow. Thanks.

im not very good at speaking DCC,but there is a very good site called <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.wiringforDCC.com">www.wiringforDCC.com</a><!-- w --> that explains just about anything youd need to know about DCC. i've emailed the owner of the site before and he seems to be very helpful.--josh
