Thanks for this information, Chuck. It's very interesting, and I'm glad this can be done. There was a small thread about this same general topic some months ago. At that time I was interested in running a Legacy SD-70 with a TMCC Dash 8, and the indication I got was that it wasn't possible to run these together.
It's been my understanding that when running two TMCC Odyssey 1 engines together, it is best to shut off the Odyssey on the rear engine. I thought the same would be true if running an Odyssey 1 engine with a Legacy (Odyssey 2) engine, but after seeing some responses on that old thread I was then led to believe the two engines were incompatible and couldn't be run together without a conflict no matter what.
I was surprised to hear this at the time - found it hard to believe that a Legacy engine wasn't backwards compatible to be able to run with a TMCC engine. Glad to hear that's not true.
