Well, I don't know, but I think for the average home layout, 3 or 4 engines in operation and 6 idling somewhere are still a lot.[:)] And the rest can be sitting in storage yards with the power off. <br /> <br />Besides, I just checked with my Zephyr system, and even if you dispatch a loco to release it from the throttle, the lights stay on in the last mode chosen as long as it's sitting on a powered track (at least with an Atlas Master engine and an older engine with a Digitrax decoder). So the 10 loco limit doesn't seem to prevent you from having idling engines with their headlights on and not in the throttles queue. <br />
