I am considering down the road converting my layout to DCC so that I can run up to 4 locomotives at a time.  3 diesels wiill be DCC 1 2-6-2 Steam will remain analog.  I have heard that E -Z command will only safely operate 3 locos at a time.  Does anyone have any experience with this type of set up and should I be looking at something better.

I have reading and on occasion posting to this board for awhile now and have some questions.

1) what type of oils do you use to lubricate your locos?  I have 5 in service.

2) could someone educate me about turnouts I here you talk about #5 #6 turnouts please explain what the numbers mean? 

Just Curious Anyone know how the history of trains under the tree at Christmas Started?

Thanks to the service Department for the quick turn around time relacing my broken 262 Union Pacific Parie Locomotive.

This year I added a homemade Hanukkah train to my holiday train collection. However I was wondering if anyone has ever commercially produced a Hanukkah train? Anyone know?
