Well, any module that has electrical connections to the track will run them
back to the controller area in the module. From there, a controller could be
removed and the wire just run to the other controller where multiple layouts
are connected, so I don't think it will be much of a problem. I would
personally like to see our layouts get to the size that these issues become a
problem, but right now, I think it is fairly minimal.
