The "keyboard" is a touch screen. Everything has a touch screen these days. There hasn't been a car radio with buttons in years.

Certainly an update/ adaptation could have been designed. Maybe not at Lionels price point. The same reason they no longer power the trains with Pittman motors.

Good point.  The old keyboard/touchscreen was plastic and pressure sensitive.  All newer stuff uses glass with capacitive touch, which only needs the lightest pressure to detect a 'push'.

Glass is heavier and definitely more expensive.

Agreed,
