Chuck,
Your point is well taken after all the TMCC technology is, in the electronics world, quite old. The trouble is that I think Lionel's thinking is a bit short sited for the times. They should have left the serial port alone since it worked with all their other devices and added a USB port for communication with present or future computer devices. This would have brought them more into the present and could have been done with very little additional electronics. Almost nobody uses a serial port any more and most computers now days don't even have one. Yes I know they have that port for that memory module but I would be willing to bet that that is non standard. They try so hard and come up with some good ideas and then shoot themselves in the foot.
