A layout...

It's not a complex one but I like very much its simplicity. It looks very effective.

I like how he is always trying some new, but relatively simple

Clever use of the wye.

[disturbman]

Very clever, I always wanted to do something resembling that but never found the way... well I never thought of using my wyes too.

Note that there is only one power feed to the track, at the curve in the lower right of the video. This whole operation is possible because of Tomix's "complete selection" design on its turnouts. Both rails of the unselected route are electrically disconnected, not just the one coming from the frog. This prevents crossed polarities on the rails at the wye (the "reverse loop" problem). It also keeps both rails on the wye siding from having the same "polarity," as they would with Kato track, since both siding rails come off the inner rail of the loop.
