How many locos running at once when this happens.

Do you see anything on screen or does the display dim out then the Elite reboot.

Do the locos start to run again on their own or do you have to reselect each and drive away.

Personally, I would remove all locos from the tracks and then ensure the Elite remains powered OK. If it does then turn off the Elite and add one loco. Power back up and run that one loco for a short while ensuring it runs correctly. If it does, power off the Elite and remove that loco and try another loco then do this same testing loco by loco until all have been tested. If any one loco causes the Elite to trip then investigate that loco as to the cause.

If the Elite trips with no locos on the track as per the first check above, remove the two Track feed wires from the rear terminals and also the Programming wires if used. Power up Elite and see if it now trips. If it does suspect the power supply, its cable or the Elite itself. If its OK after a while, then the problem is in the track wiring or the track layout itself.
