Hi Michael,

I too use ESU ECoS with the ESU Detectors 50094. Please note the ESU Detectors Standard 50096 will do the same thing I just had the 50094 from my 2 rail days. There's a jumper that you move and it then works exactly like the 50096.

To create the bocks I have added three blocks for each passing siding.

The turnouts are not in a block. You need to isolate the outside rail and make sure you cut the tabs under the c track so that the outside rails are separated and then you can use them as detector tracks. Install a red isolators at every block so that means you will need six. You will need to add the detecting wire which will go to a detector module.


I have not detected any turnouts as Traincontroller does not need them. Best is to go over the block definition from either one of the computer software programs and learn what a block is?

Start with one block and make sure it works then proceed with the next. It's exhilarating when you get it done correctly and once it's all finished it's very, “COOL”
