EZ Track Switch Crossover

2 questions.

1. Does Bachmann make a dual wire adapter so that 2 green switch wires can be plugged into it and then run to a single switch
   controller? I made some of my own extensions using telephone cable but the green switch wire has a hard time seating in the
    4 pin telephone plug in order to crimp. You waste a lot of 4 pin connectors.  I was told a long time ago to solder. I'm just trying
    to save time.

2. I just installed 2 #5 turnouts to form a crossover. My 4-6-2 stalls on one of them at the frog. Frog is not powered (DCC) as
   instructed. I have several other #5s and don't have the problem. Any Suggestions.

    Ignore this question. I removed the turnout from the layout and put it in a test track. It worked ok. Put it back in the layout
    and it seems to work ok. Your guess is as good as mine.
