For anyone considering LC+, who wants to avoid the entry level designation, get 3 LC+ engines and the LionChief Universal Remote. Doing so enables one operator to run 3 LC+ engines at the same time using that 1 universal remote unit.
Nothing entry level about that, IMO. I now have 3 LC+ engines and a Universal Remote, and don't yet have the confidence to run the 3 engines using the universal remote. When my 6 year old granddaughter comes over next time, she will have the confidence to do it.
LOL, Arnold
PS, the directions say you can also have multiple universal remotes in action to run even more trains simultaneously.
