I am currently using MRC Command 2000's on both my HO and my wife's N scale layouts. Though limited in fuctions and numbers of loco addresses (10 for each system) we have both been very pleased with the operation and ease of use with the systems, especially when using the handheld control in addition to the command station. This would not be a system for use with sound or advanced functions, but for my wife's N scale, sound is not really important. You can use multiple engines on the same address for simple consisting including reversing direction of individual locos in a consist ( when running A units back to back you can use the same address and just program one loco with polarity reversed). <br /> <br />I have used mainly NCE and Digitrax decoders (basic models) with great success and use the 28 speed step option. With the Command 2000 you can regulate the acceleration and braking speeds with great realism when programming. I did not like the basic MRC decoders with the 14 speed step limitation and have removed them. <br /> <br />When I advance my HO system to sound, I would not hesitate with MRC Prodigy Advanced system.
