LATE BREAKING NEWS
Ring Engineering http://www.ringengineering.com/ has introduced RailPro. RailPro is now available at dealers and I first found it on the www.yankeedabbler.com website along with Rail Master speakers. Now you can pick up an HO engine with an LM1 Ring sound decoder and the Ring HC1 controller and operate on any train club HO layout- DC or DCC. Rail Pro also breaks the 4 digit engine number barrier and multiple clubs can operate on an interchange with the same engine number without interference.

A RailPro starter system is about $600.00 and includes:
HC-1 Wireless Hand Held Controller with Color Touchscreen
