the length of trains are governed by many things. the size of the layout,the way you operate, how many industries you have etc. if you just like to run trains then the length of a train is limited only by the size of your curves and the percentage of your grades. if you operate with a certain goal in mind,then the size of your trains will vary greatley. i operate with a card fowarding system, which means trains will vary from 6 or 7 cars with one engine to 20 to 30 cars with as many as 4 engines. <br /> <br /> good luck <br /> santa fe fan
