operated in one predetermined direc-
tion.
¼ The isolating track section T should
be mounted behind the "pulling in"
(manual point) set of points.
¼ The terminal loop track section K
should be mounted shortly before the
"pull out" of the terminal loop with
the arrow pointing towards the set of
points.
¼ The distance between the two sec-
tions of track T and K should be at
least as long as the longest train
which is to be operated around the
terminal loop. This allows enough
time for polarity reversal. When using
the illuminated 30190 post luggage
wagon, the distance must be at least
as long as the entire train.
¼ Shunting within the terminal loop is
not possible.
¼ When operating around the terminal
loop, the controller knob must be
rotated through the zero position to
the other side.
This allows the train to leave the termi-
nal loop again (the train will then con-
tinue around the layout but will run in
the opposite direction).
Two examples:
Fig. 6
Terminal loop for running in a
clockwise direction.
The train runs into the terminal loop
with the controller set at position 1,
stops at the stopping point Hp. The con-
troller knob is now turned into position
2. The train can now pull out of the ter-
minal loop without having to stop
again.
Fig. 7 If the track sections K and T are
interchanged, the running direction is
reversed (counter-clockwise).
Track Plan Suggestion for Building
a Station within a Terminal Loop.
Fig. 8
In this example, the terminal
loop isolation section is fitted behind
the station. In this way, shunting may
be done in the station without any
8
problem. If a second terminal loop is
built into a layout, it is possible to turn
the train twice.
Advantage: All vehicles, locomotives
and wagons will always be operated
with their coupling pointing in the same
direction. This does not apply to those
who have made the effort to fit their
vehicles with symmetrical couplings.
Additional Terminal Loop Suggestions
Building a track diagonal, track plans
with terminal loops, terminal loops with
overhead lines can be found in our
track plan book 00289.
