  1. I will stick my neck out here and yes its possible, the main issue will be "synchronising" the 2 motors so that 1 will not be dragging the other. 

    Depending on the control method something akin to treating the motors as 2 locos in an MU configuration may have to be employed because effectively they will be like 2 separate locos connected.

    I have some similar made from stainless steel I saw them in a magazine being sold under the name "the conductor" think from "SanVal".

    I have used them to go over brass slide on joiners to reinforce them when on a curve to prevent kinking. 

    From memory they were intended to increase conductivity by clamping the slide on joiners.

    I found them better than conventional clamps because the screws were on top and I didn't have to get down on my knees to fix them (not getting any younger) and they have not come loose in the 10 years they have been down.

    I painted them black to disguise them.

    I might look at these ones for my new elevated layout that I will be starting in 2 years time.
