The Digitrax Zephyr system is also limited to 10 active locos, but can handle any number you have addresses for. That's proably more than enough for 1 or 2 operators at a time; if you need more operators at the same time, you probably won't be looking at entry-level DCC systems anyway. The new Bachmann system is probably the same. <br /> <br />Besides, I can't imagine trying to run 10 locos at the same time all by myself -- I'd be spending more time throwing switches to make sure they don't collide than actually enjoying running them.
