After posting this yesterday, I did some fiddling and configuring and found a work around. Not exactly a perfect solution, but it achieves the end goal.

I have one button programed for Ditch Finish On and programed as a momentary button. Then a second button programed with the regular Ditch light effect, also as monetary, which finished with the lights off. Pressing and holding either button flashes the ditch lights, as will the blasting the horn, but the finish on button will end with the lights on solid and full and the other will turn them off.

Like I said, not perfect, but achieves the goal. Any other suggestions?

...ah... The great pumpkin strikes again. 

Been gone from Model RR'ing for the summer and getting back into it now that winter is here.

Bill - I see that back in August you listed Precision Design Co. on the Dead list for Railpro Retailers?

I can do special orders only at this time.
The border issues last year killed my ability to keep a US warehouse.

Is there a way to turn off the ditch lights when using the Ditch Finish On option?

The Local RR's around here run the ditch lights on solid when in forward motion and flash them when they sound their horns. To emulate this, I am using the Ditch Finish On light effect. A tap of the button starts the lights flashing, a second tap stops the flashing and the lights stay on. The problem is that I can't find a way to turn them off afterwards. Is there some trick to this I don't understand? Should I have the button set as momentary instead of on/off? Do I need a second button set to regular Ditch Lights

I tried the light effect editor but that only changes the flashing itself.

Good Evening Folks:

I’m finally getting to building a 4’x8’ layout in HO.  I will have about a dozen turnouts, a wye and a reverse loop.  I have two auto reverse, (ar-1), modules and two accessory, (am-1b), modules.

I will need to buy at least one more module for the turnouts.  It will probably be a TC-1.

Of course, all these modules will need power.  I am using the PWR-56 to power the track.

Instead of buying a PWR-56 for each module, can I hook up my existing PWR-56 to a busbar or barrier terminal strip or some such device and connect all the modules and the track to the busbar/barrier terminal strip?  Or are there other power options.  Yes, I am trying to save money.  Since retiring and becoming a senior pensioner on a fixed income, my disposable income has nearly evaporated, lol. 

Although I have 16 engines, at most I will run three at a time on this 4’x8’ layout.  All but two of my engines are steam locomotives, if that makes a difference.

Your help and patience is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,
Max
