Powered points that have been run through (in the trailing / converging direction) will cause problems if the train reverses and now moves in the opposite (facing / diverging) direction. Depending on how bad the damage is, axles may go in the position (direction) the points were last commanded (which is not the line it would have come from) or they may derail.
