Hello,
this is my first post to Lugnet.
Maybe this is common knowledge in Lego train community, but I have never seen
mentioned that points can be used as insulated tracks. Here is an example of
reversing loop with standard Lego parts:

Hey! That’s really neat. I never thought of that. Nice work.

You don’t need to break your tracks for reversing loop project and this loop
type takes only one of your straight tracks which are often needed elsewhere.

You don’t need to cut track to make insulations, btw. Just a tiny slip of paper
between the connectors will keep electricity from flowing. I recommend marking
insulating points with red plate, though, as it’s easy to forget where you
insulated.
