I normally model in n scale, but purchased recently the Bachmann Echo Valley setup for around the Christmas tree. It comes with their EZ Command DCC controller and a sound-equipped locomotive and a simple oval of track. On the recommendation of my local hobby store I purchased some additional track, including their 60 degree crossing (Bachmann PN 44542) and set up a folded figure 8 as in the picture below. Unfortunately this layout keeps resulting in a short circuit when I apply track power (rapid blinking of the stop and the f1 led's). There is no reversing loop so what am I missing? It works just fine when set up in a simple oval. Thanks.
