Can two loco decoders have the same loco address?
A. Put simply – YES. However, the two locos will be treated as one by the system so you you probably wouldn’t want to do this in practice. If you want double heading (called consisting) this can be achieved in other ways. You might, though, want to have decoders in different carriages of a DMU with the same loco number so that they are treated as one. This makes the control of lights, etc. much easier.
