There are at least 3 types of buses in any Sat, 21 Nov 2009 18:56:28 GMT wirefordcc http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WiringForDCC/message/3857 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WiringForDCC/message/3857 We do not recommend you connect the ends of the buses under your layout and also suggest insulated joiners if you have a loop of track.

Excuse me, but I think it is the control bus that must not form a loop. With a single power district and loop of track the track forms a complete loop, so Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:02:32 GMT Vollrath, Don http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WiringForDCC/message/3853 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WiringForDCC/message/3853 The conductors of the two wires must not be connected together. Cover each bare wire end with a wire nut to insulate them from other objects. You can secure Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:45:49 GMT D&R http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WiringForDCC/message/3852 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WiringForDCC/message/3852 When installing the bus wire, are the ends connected together or left hanging. How are they secured.

I can not remember off the top of my head which one, but there is a reset ops Thu, 19 Nov 2009 14:42:37 GMT kd6bmv http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WiringForDCC/message/3850 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WiringForDCC/message/3850 I recently purchased a Digitrax DS64 to incorporate into my layout using a Digitrax DCS200.

I bought my Loconet cable and connectors there.
