Normally spaced drop wires from the reverse loop connect to the sub-bus. The auto reverse switching device is then connected as per wiring instructions to the sub-bus, (any where along the sub-bus, more particularly, the most convenient point). When the loco enters the reverse loop from either direction, the circuit senses a short circuit & virtually instantaneously changes the polarity within the track. Sure beats the manual polarity switches!
Hope this helps
