I have a 4x8 layout with a two feet high center divider running lengthwise. I'm using DC for this layout, and I'll only be running one train at a time. I would like to use two cabs, one on each side of the layout, and I'd like to have a momentary-on push button switch next to each cab so that I can switch cars on one side of the layout with one cab, send the train on its way, walk over to the other side and press the push button next to the second cab to give that cab control so I can use it to control the layout to switch sidings on that side. Does that make sense? Is this possible without overly complicated wiring? It would be easy to divide the layout halves into two seperate power blocks if that would help. The layout is comprised to 6 sections, bolted together, each with its own power bus. Maybe an image would help. The big gray line down the middle is the divider, and the other straight lines indicate the borders of the six modules that comprise the layout.
