When legacy came out, I initially bought a base but was unimpressed with LCD icons and the interface vs what DCS had already done.

You've hit on a point that always bothered me with the Legacy CAB-2 handheld, especially now that Lionel is eventually going to be the only game in town. Despite its excellent functionality, I never liked its mostly non-intuitive user interface. For example, how do you reverse an engine if you are a first-time user without reading the instruction manual?

So going forward, is Lionel going to put all of its emphasis on Smartphone control? The LionChief 2.0 Plus gives a hint of that. But how many of us have actually tried to run our MTH and Lionel trains with a Smartphone but reverted back to the handheld (like me!)?
