My intention was to do all three coaches from the same battery and I may end up changing my mind back, but I decided today to instead keep them on separate circuits. Currently the inside of the combine looks like this. But, I think I'll use button-cell batteries for the other two coaches. This way would actually be easier, especially if I add more coaches to this consist.
Using the same battery for all coaches also meant that the more lights connected, the dimmer they all get, which is okay up to only the pair of coaches (6 LEDs). Another downside of this method is the wires between coaches. If I could do it with really flexible wire, I'd feel better about it, but otherwise I'd be worried the wire will derail the coaches on tighter curves.
