It is a past MTH problem, they’ve already moved past the remote, it’s a future Lionel problem because they either need to redesign, retool, and produce another hardware remote or use software and the phone manufacturers to do it for them.
Don’t get me wrong I prefer the remote to a smart device any day but I personally see a day without a Legacy hardware remote. If Lionel goes in that direction people will still buy their trains just like they’re scooping up the “last” runs of MTH products.
As everyone pointed out, none of us have a crystal ball so at this point it’s wait and see. Maybe you’re right. ICab certainly wasn’t a big hit but then again Lionel was and is still selling Legacy.
