This question may get buried in the Santa Fe RTR set blowout thread elsewhere on OGR.
Has anyone tried to run two of the same powered A units from two separate RTR sets (in this case Santa Fe Super Chief 6-84719) and succeeded?
That single A unit looks a bit wimpy pulling the original 3 car consist with a few of the add on cars included.
Obviously you have the two hand held remotes to deal with or discard in favor of the inexpensive Lionel orange Universal remote.
I haven't a clue how to do it or if it can be done without crazy extensive modifications.
Thoughts please.
