Most I talked to would not be willing to buy extra cars to set up 5 trains. I got the Standard and 10 cars. I added the Ultimate and Turbo when the glitch was left open so long, thinking it was like some other glitches that are not encouraged but not prohibited either... so Turbo is running and other two are on the siding.

One slight correction it is 2 cars with 5 engines, not 10 engines to make the 10 boxcars, they would put the 2 cars on the farm and then connect all 5 engines to those 2 boxcars. Like you I have one engine with 10 cars, I wasn't going to spend the FC since I figured that once they either know about the glitch or can fix it they will since it is costing them money to keep it open

You said you had 10 cars and 2 FC engines, what I would do is put 9 cars on the turbo (use this train for the boost) and put 1 car on the ultimate (just to make it a useful engine). Now if you have enough neighbors that you can send boosts out for both trains, maybe put 5 cars each on both trains, this way both of your FC engines are being used.
