Back from vacation, jumping into this fray. The Azatrax LARY Latching relay 'IS' the solution. You place it anywhere, wire the mains to the 1C/2C terminals, then the DCC to 1A or 1B terminals and DC to the 2B or 2A terminals. It doesn't matter (after the first time it is activated, it will *always* stay in the location, even with the power off, until you choose the other Power choice.
Place a DC and DCC choice (2 buttons or momentary-center off toggle) at both ends or even 3 locations, with one in the middle area. Wire all 2 (or 3) of the 'DC' choice to KA (or KB) and the 'DCC' choice buttons to the KB (or KA), just as shown.
You can now choose your source from either end or middle and, it will stay that way, even with the power off. So, you can run your trains day after day without having to select, until you need the other power source.
Great suggestion Greg.
