Revised question on Atlas switches that short on DCC

I have a digitrax DCC system and use the N scale manual switches with the plastic frogs.
My longer engines have no problems but my shorter ones stall on the switches.
How do you fix this?

Thanks

2 ways.

  1. Add more pickups to the short locos…or…

  2. Replace those turnouts with ones with metal frogs that can be powered via a switch.
