Thanks Nigel, appreciate your reply I may have to go down that road but it could work out expensive as you noted.

I know Lenz is well thought of but I used Lenz kit in the early days and had nothing but problems so I'm a bit wary.  Then again, I've seen loads of complaints about Railmaster ..... Cheers!

Does anyone have any genuine information on the Railmaster Loco identification kit, if it's ever going to happen, etc?  I recall ages (years!) ago an R number being quoted on one of the RM Web forums.  I recently asked Hornby Customer Care and the best I got was a "not this year".

Can anyone suggest any thing I can use as an alternative, without getting too technical, preferably PNP.  I use Railmaster, which I'm quite happy with, never had any real issues  - I find reading the manual helps mostly!

I would like to store complete trains in hidden siding/fiddle yards and a detection system would help my failing memory!
