Plus, when you start with the Power Cab and upgrade to a bigger system, you still have that stand-alone Power Cab you can use with a test/programming track at your bench, while the "big" system is running trains on the layout.

Actually, when added to a PH PRO, a powercab becomes a procab, and can jump from plug UTP to UTP just like its big brother!

To be a little more clear, it can do both. Either stand alone on the bench, or as a Pro Cab on the PH Pro system.

In fact, you can add the PH Box and a UTP panel  to the Power Cab, and have all the makings of the PH Pro system. Cheaper than purchasing a PH Pro system after you have the Power Cab.

Thanks for the update Karl and Andy. I was going to quote stuff but had a little issue. Not used to this forum yet.

I am still leaning towards NCE.  In Feb we have a local train show with many clubs operating portable layouts so I think I will ask around and see if I can get some hands on.  I'm sure I  remember both NCE and Digitrax being used in the past.
