Within that there are few projects I have going on:
1. A LionChief Gateway that interprets commands sent by the LC remote and adds things like new drive modes and accessory control as seen here: https://youtu.be/Ie4wmCQ8vOg
2. I'm also going to work on adding TMCC / Legacy control of LionChief trains. (still don't have access to TMCC or Legacy to test though.
3. A conversion board to add LC control to older Locos including postwar Pullmor motors.
4. An external sound board with a link to the LC remote or app via my LC Gateway project.
Probably more to come."
That... is awesome. Amen and thank you. Looking forward to your future updates.
If I may add a request. I would love to be able to control multiple trains simultaneously (I believe you can only control 1 train at a time with the Lionel App), switches, and accessories in an app on an iPad as these guys do with the Lego trains (this is from 3 yrs ago)
Control Lego Trains and layout/switches on iPad
Thank you again

Thanks for the feedback and Yes you actually reminded me about that priority of mine. My board will definitely let you run multiple locos at once. I even plan on allowing the calibration of different speed steps to sync them up as much as possible.
I just need to get a second LionChief loco to try it out with. As soon as I have one, I can test my plans out (my credit card begs me to wait until this coming Tuesday the 28th). This will work with both the LC app and Remote. It would not be too crazy difficult for me to program an app like in the video, but for now I would prefer to stay within the LionChief environment.
