Since my primary focus is O-scale(gasp) i still have plenty of space for a nice N-scale empire. I ether have a 4'X 9' space or a L shaped 8' x 2' one wall by 4'X 3' foot of the L. Here is what i want to do. Now i have TMCC which is essentially the same as DCC, so i know how much fun it really is. However i don't want to spend the money on dcc. I was thinking one or two outside loops running long laps around the layout. Now can i run two trains off one transformer providing they are on non connecting runs? Second is that i wan tto incorperate two switching layouts inside this loop. Here is my idea. Have a seperate powerpack controling each switching layout. These layouts will be connected, but isolated form each other so that the two engines could trade cars on essentially a dead track. I really enjoy working on my big project while watching my little guys chug around. I plan on using both layouts to practice scenery techniques. BTH, you all are missing all the fun with electro couplers. For those of you who don't know, with TMCC, i can take a car, spot it anywhere, hit a button on my TMCC controler and "zap" it uncouples. Very cool indeed. I am running a VO1000, a Baby trainmaster, a bachman 2-8-0, and a MP 4-6-2. All are very very nice engines. THanks Bill <br /> <br />
