Reply to "Other Than The Much Larger Legacy Remote, Has Lionel Replaced The CAB1-L Remote?"

We have a club member who has bad arthritis and holding any of the those hardware remotes was very hard to do let alone pushing the buttons. The first time and only way he can experience command control is with a large screen tablet and a weighted stylus pen. I'm working with him to find a game pad controller that he feels comfortable with to hold in his hands and use the app remote program shown above.

Its great that your there helping him, and I'm glad the app makes it possible.

It sounds like we all have (or are getting) what we want/need to run trains. No hard feelings, just a little tongue -in -cheek sparring thus the two winks.

On a side note. As you may already know. The basis for the "big red knob" on the TMCC /Legacy handheld came from Neil Youngs input on the design so his son with Cerebral Palsy  would to be able to operate it. So Lionel hasn't been totally ignorant to those with special needs or health issues.

It looks like the app gives even wider consideration to those with physical limitations.
