Please try not to laugh as you read a posting from this novice...
I'm finishing up a few new track loops on my HO layout. One loops is working nicely, on the other the engine runs a few seconds and then my overload trips. I have given the track a onceover three times and haven't found anything suspicious. I only have feeder wires connected at one spot so far, thus there is no risk that I switched the inside and outside rails. I know the power pack is fine in that it runs my other track loop just fine.
Anything else I should be looking into? This is a simple dogbone-- there are no switches, no turnouts, no reversing loops, etc.
Many thanks in advance...
