Another thing you may be overlooking. You have total flexibility with each loco having its own decoder with its on address. When you form the consist your loco are faced on the track the way they are going to run, but all moving in the same direction. If the loco facing backwards is running in reverse when consisted it will run the same direction as the ones facing forwards. You can control functions of consisted locos still by calling up their address. When you want to run helpers on Digitrax the top loco of a consist can be the top loco of another consist (nested consisting) and the helper consist can be MU'ed to it.
