Thank you very much for the info. I also sent a message about the remote control system to my local hobby shop to see if they can help me out. I really want to use a remote control system because I feel I am always tied with wires when I use my DC controller(that and there is practically no space in my house).

Thank you for the information. I think, however, that for my needs it would be better if I got the remote control. Do you know what possibly what I need to make it work and how to program locos into it. Any information that you could give is greatly appreciated.

What about the E-Z Command Walk-Around Companion (with Connector Wires)? It looks like the same controller (I 'm probably wrong though). What exactly is different between them?

P.s. I am looking for a controller that controls the trains remotely. What one would you suggest?

I really would like to know what I need for DCC and the steps to set it up.
