question on different version of tomcat running on the same pc
Hope this helps.
You deserve a medal for the clear and precise descriptions. Would you
consider adding this to the Tomcat Wiki, perhaps on this page?

Now all that's left to do is for someone to make a version of this that
works for installing and starting the same as Windows Services.
Despite what Christopher wrote - which is basically right - there is
still some tricky element there, in that you cannot set the
"system-wide" environment variables JAVA_HOME, CATALINA_HOME and
CATALINA_BASE. If you do, then each of the respective (tomcat6,
tomcat7, tomcat8) "service.bat" will use the set values, and never
prompt for another.
I have not actually tested this scenario, but looking at the code of the
"service.bat" file, I believe that in case you install multiple Tomcat
services, there is a potential for misbehaving there (for example, it
requires JAVA_HOME to be set, but which one ?).
I think the intent of the instructions was to allow you to run any of
them, but start them at different times, changing the environment
variables as appropriate before starting each one. Once an instance is
started, I believe it's safe to change the env var's to start the next one.
