I WISH TO RUN UP TO EIGHT LOCOMOTIVES AT THE SAME TIME AND HOPE THE SIGNALS AND TURNOUTS WORK ACCORDING TO MY PLANNING. I APPRECIATE YOUR POSSIBLE HELP.

TrainController. Of course, you also have decoders controllers controlling turnouts and signals. With this solution, you can choose e.g. 7 engines to be controlled by the computer while 1 engine is controlled by yourself. Oh, also: Posting text in italics (big letters) only, easily derives an impression of ”screaming” the message...

Typing in capitals is the same as SHOUTING at someone, and I'm sure we can all read your posts just as well if they are typed normally (Thanks PeFu, I only saw your comment after I posted mine.)
