jhz,
Now you are starting to get it, and RJR is correct you can actually run both P2/P3 and conventional engines on the same track, at the same time once you understand how, and become quick enough to control both from the DCS hand held remote control. Most people think this is pretty much a pain, so they seldom do it, however it can be done correctly. I would run both my original Lionel Conventional 263E & my MTH P2 263E on the same 2nd level at the same time using the DCS hand held remote control, just to see it happen, now this is way cool stuff, to an old guy like me, I dreamed of being able to due this remote control stuff as a kid, now I can actually do it with my original Lionel Tin Plate and my Repro MTH Tin Plate also, on the same tracks. Ya got to love this hobby.
