Reply to "Bluetooth Trains"

Go with what you think you want for your layout, not what others recommend.  Personally, I still run only conventional, but that is me. Maybe "blue is the way to go, for you." Plans for kits or announcements of future releases are fine, but they don't exist right now, and in the past there were some companies who did a lot of this and then did not follow up completely.  Still, Bachmann has a good reputation for doing what it says it will do, although not always as soon.  

 

Check on compatibility across manufacturer's lines though, before committing too much to any one approach: you may discover you need different equipment/systems/software to use the same blue tech for different brands/types of trains.  And make sure you know what equipment you may need and its price.  So far, conventional is the only system that will run everything although it is possible to set up Legacy to do that with extra equipment.  I've know folks who picked a path and found it to be a bit more expensive than they expected.
