I've come across the following when browsing the Walthers website:

"LC100 XpressNet Components -- Converter, Allows Non XpressNet Based DCC Systems to be Used w/Digital Plus"
According to the Lenz site "The LC100 "listens" to the track output of the other digital system. All commands that would be send over the track to your engines and turnouts are read by the LC100. The LC100 looks for changes in the data received, and sends those to the command station LZ100, using the XpressNet"
Has anyone tried one of these out? In theory it sounds like it could work with any system. It mentions the standard Lenz track signal. I had always thought that the track signal from DCC systems were pretty well the same, otherwise they wouldn't be able to work with each others decoders.
