So is that actually a no that it cannot handle long addresses? You kind of danced around it. I know it is a rudimentary system, I was just hoping I could run 1 locomotive on it without having to reprogram. I have an old unused digitrax zephyr, i was just trying to make things easier for my 3 yo granddaughter.

I was given an HO set last year with the EZ Command control center. I used it only for around the Christmas tree. My primary layout is Digitrax n scale and Kato Unitrack. I want to use the EZ Command for a small n scale layout this year, again around the tree. But it seems from your literature that I will be forced to reprogram any locomotives that I use with short addresses only (2-9). If this is true I'll have to look elsewhere for a DCC controller, but I was hoping to use the Bachmann if possible.

so what is the story on long addresses? and will the locomotives, which all have sound decoders installed, be able to address those sounds?
