I was wondering if a reverse loop module would work with Hornby Digital and if you had a non isolating point would there be any issues?

Do you need a non isolating point at the entrance to the return loop?

Do points switch automatically when using a reverse loop module and how does this work to avoid a derailment?

Hornby do an isolating track section and point motors and also an accessory module.

I'm thinking of doing a narrow single line modular layout like the one done by that Z gauge Scandanavian modeller featured elsewhere using a similar composite material as the base and running it all around the perimeter of the rooms at home!

This has been covered generally elsewhere but it got a bit overcomplicated. I was thinking of using the Bachmann reverse loop module.

Happy modelling

QUOTE If you only intend to "go round one way" just use a lighly sprung point (such as a Fleischmann or Roco) set to the "entry" & just run through

Thats what I was wondering. Thank you for the info.

Happy modelling

Thats good info Doug.

I've checked out some Roco points that I have and as suggested above they are absolutely perfect for the job in mind.

Happy modelling
