Maybe you have an HO Scale model train version of  "Christine" !    [a movie about this  guy and his car]

Could not resist.

HAHA! i just watched that movie!

I did the same thing. You can plug the DC controller into the DCC controller giving you the ability to control a DC train with one controller and your DCC trains with the other.  I have not tried pluggin them into two separate terminals.

Where can I get the connector?

Marvin-

Yes, Bachmann makes these, but they are very expensive for what you get, IMHO. You can roll your own by cutting your existing wires somewhere in the middle and then splicing in three stranded wire extensions of whatever length you need. Just make sure you get the polarity correct, essentially that the middle wire is connected straight through. I doesn't matter if you "cross" the outside wires because the terminal plugs can be inverted without causing any kind of a problem. It's not like the Bachmann extensions are unaffordable; to me it's more that I feel gouged by the high price. Plus, I like being able to do some of the basic jobs myself.

Yea, I wish I had made the extensions myself! Bought 3 of the ready made ones @ $10/each

Hello,

I bought a Bachmann DCC set and a DC set to expand. Can the 2 controllers be linked together or both be plugged into separate terminal tracks to add more power to the rails?
