Hi
I am brand new to railroad modelling.
I am looking for a system to control a model railroad from my own PC and write my own software to do this (say in C#).
The safe route I have found at the moment is the LENZ Set 90 a TR150 transformer and the LENZ usb or serial port interface via xpressnet. I feel confident that this setup will work however the cost is rather expensive for what really is a little project that I want to play with.
Another option that I have come across (although not confident it will work) is to purchase a Hornby DCC select unit and connect its xpressnet port to the LENZ usb or serial adapter. Do you know of anyone that has attempted this or know if it will work?
Regards
J Lewis
