To Mike: Okay, I'll try that test.
To fcwilt: Yes, one of the first things I did was to verify that the wiring was consistent on the main line and turnouts. But I'm going to run the test Mike suggested.
Now, on your suggestion, I'm using PECO insulfrog turnouts. I don't see any gaps in the ties, but a drop of solder would be easy to make the two connections. Will that suffice?
Here is a picture of a new turnout and a turnout with "jumpers" added.
On my layout for a very specific reason all of my turnouts have their own power feeds which is why the "jumpers" look like feeders, because they are.
