Another question - what are the Legacy Writeable Utility Modules used for and how many come with a complete system?

The rewritable modules allow you to load multiple engines on them so if you go to a club or another layout you can have all of you locomotive information. Originally legacy locomotives came with a orange module that had their own information. This gave the system the name of the locomotive and road number. Not necessary but a very nice touch and then it would tell it that it was a for example Legacy diesel with Legacy rail sounds. The base must be informed as to what you are going to run. If you give it no information it will stay in cab-1 mode and anything will work but you loose all the very cool legacy features if it’s a Legacy locomotive. If it’s a TMCC locomotive I MUST be on TMCC mode so that the base isn’t trying to send out the 9bit Legacy signal because the TMCC locomotive will not understand and will not function properly.
the black modules are also used to upgrade the Legacy base and Cab-2 remote.
I hope this helped.
