[OXO cube]

upon inspection ,
following Andy's track wiring post , 
i found that the wiring from the power supply to the 3 pin plug sockets was correct 
but the wiring from the plug socket to the track rails was the wrong way around   at the rails 
a few moments wiggling the low voltage light bulb around in my head 
and i had a brain fart 
i just turned each powered track section through 180 degrees   and the track is now powered correctly and direction of travel is correct   
so its happy days , and all is good now , i must have switched the powered track sections when i rebuilt the garage without realising 

btw , the club controller wasn't a DS as originally stated , it is a Truspeed , Rum and Coke must have been involved during the original post , sorry guys 
and huge thanks Andy
