I've been assuming that we won't be able to have DCC since 99% of people don't have converted motors etc, but if you have that many available it just might be possible. We wouldn't need as many keypads as motors, presumably, since not all locos will be in use at once. For a small group, we probably have a large space available in a member's house over here, which would be easier of access to people not on the Island.
