ChristmasTrains,
IMO it was the adding of switches, that expanded the growth and interest in my Train layout when I was a young boy. Today with FasTrack and the new Command Control Switches, that can be run from both the wired manual controller or the fantastic wireless TMCC/Legacy remote Control the FTCC Switches open up all kinds of new layout geometry and remote control running fun. IMO if you want to expand your sons interest in his Trains, the Legacy package with a couple Command Control switches would definitely do the trick. With a new Legacy Engine for Christmas, it would double that interest factor also. Time to get your Christmas check book out Dad, you just might develop an interest for your son, that turns him into a Professional NASA Engineer some day. The reason for the Legacy/TMCC instead of DCS is that Legacy or TMCC is very simple for your son to understand, and owning the FasTrack already the low voltage wireless Command Control Switches are great engineering, that run off track power, a simple plug and play operation. Then program each switch into the Hand Held Remote Control, or just use the track side manual switch controller, instant play time with his expanded train layout.
