    I need help. I plan on putting this 2 ft T-Trak module in the 2026 Chattanooga layout and I want it to be perfect. I’m new to the T-Trak side of Nrail and I don’t understand how to wire the 20-231 Kato crossover. I know it should have the BWWB wiring, but when an engine crosses over, doesn't that create a problem? I watched ALL the "talking T-Trak videos and some talked about cutting track and wiring both sides, or using a Digitrax AR1 reverse controller - but it is all greek to me. I just want a diagram that show what to do with this or that part.

    Can anyone provide that for me?

    BWWB is the color of the wiring, not the 'polarity'.  When you connect the yellow line (inside line) to your power supply, you make sure it is the opposite of the red (outside) line so the 'polarity' of the two lines is the same.  You can use what is called a cross-over cable to accomplish that.  I hope this helps - if not, keep posting your questions.
