Help 1st time in winter storage - if I hook 110 shore power to the coach 50amp twist lock connection will that trickle charge both the coach and engine batteries over the winter?

Maybe.

Wileyone, you need a specially designed charger that bridges your house batteries (which are charged by shore power) and your chassis batteries. If not, your chassis batteries will not get a maintenance charge.

These chargers are easy to find/buy/install. Most folks here have an 'Echo Charger' which is a brand name. Look for the trickle charger connecting your house/chassis batteries. If you don't find one . . . buy one. It's an easy DIY job.
