If you went DCC again, which brand?

I would check the features of each brand. I went with the Lenz system, and would do the same if I were to do it over. There are a lot of considerations dealing with features, future expansion, and price. I purchased the LZV100 system, and then purchased the LZV90 controller as well. Between the two of the throttles, there are advantages/disadvantages to each. For switching the 90 series controller is a "knob" controller which gives very easy control. The limitation is only 8 different addresses are stored into the controller. The 100 series is all "push button", so it can be more cumbersome for switching operations. It does offer certain programming features that cannot be done on the 90 series. It also allows me to be able to recall any of my programmed engines at any time. I find that I use both of the controllers often, but for different reasons. Check the features before buying, and make sure you are getting enough of a system. You don't want to have to lay out the ca***wice because you've outgrown your system.
