Yes, you can replace the remote if damaged or lost.  Also the universal remote (available for about $40-50) can be used with any LC or LC+ loco, and will control 3 separate such locos, which is an advantage.  All newer LC and LC+ locos from here on in will also have Bluetooth which can be operated from the free app on any smart device (telephone/tablet).  Nothing to worry about if that's what you are getting at.

No reprogramming involved.  Universal remote automatically links to the loco with press of a button.

Why buy a remote? just download the LC+ app

Perhaps because the sets before this year don't have BlueTooth and won't work with it?

I think you miss the point of the original post.

If someone is looking at buying a replacement remote, it's because they have a LC set. Otherwise they wouldn't be looking for a replacement.

Hence the reply, just download the LC app.

 I don't think you caught his point.....   Not all LC, nor all LC+ have Bluetooth so loading the app does no good. There is no Bluetooth receiver in earlier models.  And maybe, just maybe, they use a button phone or landline too

   Someone recently pointed out the universal remote couldn't do a MU with the universal, it required the original, but that is the only limitation I've read about so far.
