Any layout I create won't be big, at least not for awhile, but I'll want to
be able to operate several independent engines on it. Hence my DCC
interest.

| I just had a random thought as to how TLC could give us some capability to run multiple trains without having to go the whole DCC route. Give us a new train motor which has an IR pickup, and a switch to set it to respond to the A, B, or C motor (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
