Hi
I have used JMRI, but mainly for programming decoders. I've not tried to get my head round it for train control other than basic throttle control. I quite like the throttle interface, simple and easy to use, you can have as many throttles for trains open as your controller can manage. The decoder programmer is fab though. WYSIWYG programming, tick boxes, data entry fields, sliders for speed profiles, couldn't be easier
As with any new software with lots of features there is a lot to take in to begin with but there is a wiki http://www.editthis.info/JMRI/Main_Page
This may be of interest, a short video I did driving some trains with it and showing how easy it is to do a consist with a pair of 108s
