Another stupid turnout question...
Greetings.
I have now pretty much wired up my 5 point motors via DPDT switches, and the result does look a bit like a weird underwater frondy plant. I am wishing at this stage that I had used the alarm installation cable to keep the wires in one sleeve!
Anyway, onto the question, with reference to the wiring diagram in the previous post:
I have a 9V supply ready to power the motors; therefore I assume that 9V must be fed into the rails at points X and Y from the motor connections.
However, the point A,B will be fed from the 12V controller via the main power rails.
Surely this means that the loco motor will slow down when passing through the common crossing (12v-9v), then speed up again on leaving ( 9v - 12v)?
Or am I missing something obvious, and the lead vapours inhaled are compromising my powers of rational thought?
