I have a Lionel Grand Central Station around which I planning a taxi loop using Superstreets.   I'm also planning a very short (3 feet) straight Superstreets dual lanes approaching the front of Grand Central which cross and are perpendicular to the taxi loop.  The taxi loop is self reversing since it incorporates 2 Superstreets 'Y"s.  I'm using an EZ Streets Taxi which performs OK if the speed is right.   I'm thinking of using two Trolleys for the dual straight section.  Bump and Go trolleys will need a control system to avoid collision with the taxi.  Also, they are not that great at slow speed which is desired due to the short run.  I was wondering if MTH Brill Trolleys with Proto Sounds 2.0 would work ?  They might provide slow speed ?  I'm not sure if the DCS trolley station stop feature would work since there would only be two stops in an Out and Back route ?  Also Barry's book states only one route can be programmed.  Is that one route per trolley or one route per DCS system ?  Any thoughts would be appreciated.

If they have Station Stops, yes, they would work.

Yes, it will work fine.

 Also Barry's book states only one route can be programmed.  Is that one route per trolley or one route per DCS system ?

That's one route per trolley/subway, not one route per DCS system.

 

This and a whole lot more is all in MTH’s “The DCS O Gauge Companion 2nd Edition", available for purchase as an eBook or a printed book at MTH's web store!
