There is currently one of these listed at an upcoming auction. It looks intriguing. Does anyone who has this still use it? I read an older thread about updating control boards and better lighting being needed.
Also I use dcs, not tmcc. Are there manual controls included? Seems like this would be a crowd pleaser at a public events if it had push buttons.

There are a bunch of old threads on this, but many of the links no longer work since Lionel re-vamped their service site since then.
Here is a current list of many of the documents on Lionel's site.(manuals, addendums, etc).
Here are a few of the older threads with lots of thoughts on the backshop. (sorry, I linked to my posts within the threads only because that's how I searched for them. Feel free to start at the top

FWIW, keep in mind, this thing is HUGE and only has one track so it will fake up a lot of layout space. Also in addition to the above mentioned electonics considerations, the tin is very thin. I have one but I don’t use it. Same with my swing bridge, they are to big for my space. All that said, I love em and will keep both with the hopes that I can use them someday.
Thanks everyone. Based on what I have learned i don't think this would be a good auction sight-unseen purchase for me.
