Bud, back in those 'olden days' most guys had small chunks of track in
the service area with a simple switch. Run the engine unto that spot,
kill the current, then couple up second unit. Switch the current back
on and you have a consist! It's a bit more work, but boB is retired too!

What boB isn't telling you though, is in order to "couple up and go"
with straight DC, one has to pull the locomotives together with string
while the power is off, otherwise the units would tend to run away
from each other! LOL, hope no offense taken, Bob, I don't have DCC
either! Hmmm might be a market for miniature "come alongs"!
