Reverse Polarity on Layout. Where to put Frog juicer?

Hi everyone

 

From the attached picture you can see that I have a terminus station with two lines. One of the lines goes into the fiddle yard, the other line is the return from the fiddle yard. What I'm getting confused about is the reverse polarity. If your just doing a single return loop then that is easy to sort out but were do I put the Tam Valley frog juicer to counter act the reverse polarity?

 

Do I put it in directly after the Fiddle Yard and if so wont all the points at the station throat would also need to be juiced?

 

Or do I do the wiring the same polarity and just isolate the loop and put the frog juicer there?

 

Many thanks

Hi Whistler...

 

Your return loop is the track between the blue marks.

Just set you dual frog juicer as a pair and connect it to the track section which should be fully isolated at both ends. If you want to run two trains in this section you can reduce the size such that there will only be one train in the section.
