How do you put two locomotives together and run at the same time?(i have a dcc system,Bachmann)

Hello. In fact, the layout operates only on DC. Not DCC. We're currently evaluating the technical possibility to accommodate both configuration (through a simple DPDT switch), as we have a pretty large collection of "DC only" equipment. But to take advantage of the added functionality the newer DCC models offer us, we do need - but temporarily only a DCC power system.

Hi, I made a horrible mistake: Class J1 was not a 2-10-2 but a 2-10-4 Texas type . Sorry!!!

Hi everybody,

There no ways to put some freight cars behind, because the first a M1 have no problems but the second loco is a class J1 2-10-2 rigid frame too long for the layout, so it derailed, impossible to put something behind. I know because they are mine!

(Chuckles!) No kidding, I myself had the same impression when I worked on the rushes I used for this series of clips: "What a shame we missed putting some cars behind this double-header!" and then I found out "we did" but behind only one loc! These BLI models look great, really great. Thank for posting a comment, anyways.
