Just remember a TMCC upgrade will cost some bucks, even if you do it yourself. Joe

For those who have checked out the K-Line/Lionel catalogs, I am torn between the Lionel H16-44 NYC which has magnatraction, lots of detail and quite frankly is a cool looking engine and is about $50 cheaper, than/or the K-Line NYC RS3 with TMCC.  My thinking was to go with the H16-44 and upgrade it to TMCC later.  I really like the idea of Magnatraction.  What are your thoughts/opinions. 

Thanks,

Dennis
