QUOTE (fliermike @ 6 Aug 2008, 05:13) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I am using Lenz decoders to take advantage of its automatic braking capability, I believe that these decoders will transpond their position but I assume that means using a computer to run the whole show.
The Lenz decoders have Asymmetric DCC for location specific commands like "Brake on DC" feature , so have the TCS decoders , that does not report the position of the loco to the system. But allows a signal to be sent to a block to control the loco - a command to enforce speed control through important sections of your layout or to stop a train in a siding, in the station, or before an occupied rail crossing.
I hope this helps
