The loc now stops at the bridge. I traded bridges and got the same result. It looks like the center rail is connected and the side rails are connected. Why?

Check the connections of the track pieces again. It does work.

It's a problem in the bridge itself but I haven't found out the exact cause and haven't been able to cure it. I have verified that there is contact out to the bridge even when the train is stopped because of the problem. Luckily, I only need two of the bridges on my layout so I can put the faulty one aside. Another of the two bridges showed a little bit of the same problems but it worked after careful cleaning. Cleaning didn't help the one with the worst problems but maybe it is a dirt problem anyway.
