Agree with everything you said above @H1000. It's hard to do a 1 for1 match between Lionel and MTH. Since introducing LC+ and LC, Lionel has been selling 4 different control types: Legacy, LC+2/LC+, LC, and even some conventional. To my knowledge, MTH only sells locomotives with PS3. While a Rugged Rails or Rail King loco may lack the details of a Premier loco, it still comes with the same advanced command system.
