Double Slip Switch Update- Dead Frogs Working!

In an earlier post I described the double slip stub switch I built for my layout. Now, I have finished wiring on the part of the layout where this switch is located. I have been testing with locos and the few cars I have. All the frogs are powered except the two on this double slip switch. I am pleasantly surprised to learn that the dead frogs don't seem to be stalling the locos. They have been making it through very well.

I did order a set of auto-reverse units from Tony's Train Exchange, but maybe I won't need them.

    Glad to hear that the frogs are working. Do you have compensated chassis on the locos?
