HOW many here use their LION CHIEF + NW2 or Gp-7 to do heavy use switching detail on their layouts ?

I don't have a layout set up at the moment but for a tiny oval of track for testing at the moment, but I am very impressed by the control of my NW2 LC+ switcher and every time I run it it makes me want to do some yard switching.  This was NEVER the case with my conventional NW2.  That thing just made be want to park it on a siding and run something else on a main line.  

I am also curious if other folks find these switchers fun in their prototypical role.

I use my LC+ GP-7 for switching my yards, is great fun. Much easier to do with the remote, rather than running it conventionally from where my LW transformer is mounted.The GP-7 runs great at low speeds, unlike typical conventional-control engines. It also is great as a road engine, will pull 20+ freight cars easily.
