Reply to "Possible to run one TMCC engine via remote, one conventional?"

You may run TMCC and Command locos on the same track at the same time. The process is called "transitional command control" Basically, you will need a command base (Legacy, TMCC or Legacy 1L) and a Powermaster ( Legacy or TMCC). I refer you to The Complete Guide to Command Control, Page 30, Lionel Part # 71-2811-250. It was published and available in the early days of TMCC and was included in the Base, CAB1, Powermaster package sold some years ago. Although it applies to TMCC, the procedures outlined are just as apropos to Legacy. It takes some skill, but is sure is fun to run a Command controlled train and a conventional one on the same track simultaneously. You won't need to retire your conventional fleet or run them separately, if you so choose. Check out the manual. It is extensive and makes for some very interesting reading.
