I'm pretty new to this and getting the hang of it.  I have a Lionmaster LC2 Big Boy and a Union Pacific Legacy Diesel. I have a Fastrack layout of 072, an 048 and an 036... all independent of each other... outer 72, middle 48, inside 36 fastrack oval layouts.

Can the Legacy CAB2 control both trains on separate tracks once programmed? (Of note, the tracks are not connected with RH or LH switches). Does the Command Base of Legacy have to be connected to each track or just to one of them?

Thanks for your help!

Gunrunnerjohn. Thank you. But the question was: I have 1 Legacy CAB2 with base. But I have 3 independent layouts. 36, 48, and O72 fastrack oval layouts independent of one another.  36 inner 48 middle and 72 outer. Do I need to run a wire from Legacy base to all 3 or just 1 will suffice? All 3 are solo and not connected to one another. Please advise. Dr Rich 

The Legacy Base signal can broadcast to adjacent tracks.  You may luck out and connect just the middle loop (YMMV), but its best to connect all three loops since they are isolated from each other ( and I am assuming you have discrete power supplies for each loop).   If the loops share a power supply, then connect the base to the U terminal of the power supply.
