Southern Pacific Switching Layout

[JohnyBotto]

I was very careful wiring my layout and when it came time to test it, I had a short. Checked all the wiring under the table and turnouts as well, but the short persisted...... Until I saw a piece of metal sitting across the rails. Removed it from the rails and everything worked. (another slap your forehead moment.) So check to make sure there is no metal sitting across the rails. And take your time. It is not the most fun part of the hobby, but once it's done you can move on to the fun.
Keep us updated.
