Legacy Power Master and Cab2 (993 Expansion)

ArtsModelTrainsOGR Forum Member DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER

I was able to get my hands on a 993 Expansion Cab2 controller recently. I'm planning on ordering the Base3 and adding that to my layout to run my Lionchief, Lionchief Plus 2.0 stuff and also pick up a Legacy Powermaster for my conventional trains.

Now I know at this time my remote is useless since I don't have the 990 set which comes with the Base2 but I was watching the Lionel video on the Legacy Powermaster and noticed something interesting. (video link https://youtu.be/gEVHZLeJdzQ) At about 10:15 the video mentions that the remote talks directly to the Legacy Powermaster, not to the base then the Legacy Powermaster. Does that mean that if I had a Legacy Powermaster now I could use it to run my conventional engines using the Cab2 without the base2?
