HO 5 Trains

Jo asks readers:

“I drive a show train on a siding, unhook the cars and drive the engine onto the turn table and then into the roundhouse. Then I an reverse the procedure, but the problem is I want to do this with 5 trains. Is it going to be possible? How do I set up the track to run them all on one track afterwards, one behind the other, all being show trains. I have 3 other working trains.”

    to be able to run 5 trains on one track
    you need to use DCC “digital comand control”
    it gives your layout more a real railroad style. look in to it.
