Hi all, question re Lionchief+ 2.0: is there any way to power down a Lionchief + 2.0 engine through the Bluetooth app?  Like, I can bring an engine to life through the app by selecting it and linking to it through Bluetooth and then it runs around and makes smoke and does all the fun things.  But if you park it on a siding, how do you "turn it off" or power it down, other than by removing all voltage from the track?

In Legacy, there's a whole shutdown sequence for engines.  I realize Lionchief+ 2.0 is not as fancy as Legacy but I would have thought there would at least be a button to turn off the engine.  Is there any such thing?

You cannot, it's not a feature.

No engine has all the TMCC features under Bluetooth. They purposely have "tiered" the system so that you get some features, but not all.

Lionel wants to sell you a $500 CAB3 base.

Catch 22- they actually have to make that base into production, finish the firmware and the apps.
