Reply to "New Lionel Volume 2"

One thing I noticed is that on the list of feature icons on the top of the page that the Bluetooth icon is first and not the Legacy icon anymore.  It rather speaks to the direction Lionel is going, which makes me sad.  Trying to run trains with my phone and BT has been nothing short of frustrating, but I know when I pick up the Cab 2 (Or even the Cab-1) I know I'm in for a pleasant operating session.

Same. What bothers me is the fact that the RTR train sets don't have the TMCC feature. If I was just starting out and purchased a set then got a legacy remote and engine. I'd want to use the legacy remote to run that train. Yes, LC+2.0 gives you that option but why isn't it on a RTR set, the typical starting point in the hobby. If Lionel wants a seamless transition between train set and legacy, this certainly doesn't do it. Unless Lionel is planning to make a Cab-3 with Bluetooth that would allow both to run on the same remote as everything else but what do I know.
