Reply to "DCS Or Legacy As The Primary Control System?"

Your layout looks really great for running.

 

1st - Both systems are good.  My personal preference was the MTH DCS system.  The MTH system requires fewer components to control track, switches, and accessories.  Legacy train control runs side by side with the DCS system.  With DCS you can use most postwar power supplies and most "bricks".

 

2nd - My track plan with MTH DCS (around the walls) works great with a buss system, not star wiring.  I do use the Engineered Filters with my older TIUs.  See layout here.  The arrows on each section map are clickable for the photo tour.

 

3rd - I don't know.  All my track can be switched to run conventional with the MTH Z4000 Remote.  That's just my personal preference for conventional running.
