I anyone working on making a DIY remote for those of us who don't have one? That would be great.

I had built one almost 10 years ago. It was designed to connect to an original TIU by radio. This was meant to be a very simple remote that you could give to a kid instead of your $1000 cellphone. The remote was hard coded to control a particular engine on a particular TIU. I had suggested that it be built with robust buttons, switches and joystick - something kid-proof if such a thing were possible.

You can see a demo at: http://www.silogic.com/trains/...pport.html#RetroXFMR

If we redesigned this, we could use an ESP8266 and connect via WiFi directly to the WTIU.
