Well finally received the MA 3423, LSE T 141 Wismar, Delta Digital. Seems to run OK; however I'm using it as shuttle using 2 circuit tracks (to auto change directions) and S 88 with CS 2. Going forward ok. Nicely stops at point A and reveres to point B. however runs right through point B stopping only after hitting track bumper with wheels still turning. Only after manually touching reverse arrow on CS 2will loco reverse & resumes route back to point A. Upon arrival at point A, auto reverses nicely bacs to point B running, again straight thru point B hittling track bumper.

Substituting a BR 221 loco, for a test run on circuit tract, loco gracefully stops a points A & B and reverses as it should making a perfect shuttle.

Can't figure how to get Wismar to stop and reverse at point B to complete auto shuttle route.

Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated

The earlier types of decoder (6080, 6090, 6603, 6603x) had no "direction bit" so there was no memory in the decoder of the direction of travel.

I don't know how the CS2 shuttle system works, but maybe it needs this "direction bit".
