Bill is right on both points.
Lionel will still produce the TMCC boards for engines and accessories as
some of the other manufacturers use them but the base and CAB -1 are being
stopped.
I picked up two sets of the 1.3 modules for legacy. They did not want
to see questions on the public boards yet though. Manual is on line at
Lionel but it is also not the final version. Please read the instructions
before asking questions. and only to Lionel.
A couple of Command Control head's ups.
TMCC: Kinda bad news. Lionel has
officially announced that they are discontinuing their original TMCC Command
product consisting of the CAB-1 Controller and the Command Base. So, if
any of you have plans to purchase a TMCC set or addtional CAB-1's now is the
time before stock is depleted.
LEGACY: Really good news. The much awaited
Legacy upgrade to V1.3 is being released. Attendees at the York Legacy
User's Group breakfast were given complementary sets. Maybe Scott
was at the breakfast and received the upgrade? As with the upgrade from
V1.1 to V1.2, it's two modules. One for the CAB-2 and one for
the Legacy Base. If the club's Legacy system is registered with Lionel
we should automatically get the upgrade. The distribution dates
have not been announced yet.
