Legacy 1.6 available for download.

Anyone know where I can get the 1.6.x module or software?  I'm still on the 1.53 version and I would like to upgrade.

I think Charles Ro will sell you the new Black Modules with the new version loaded. Or you can download the version from

https://www.lionelsupport.com/...roductNumber=6-14295

 and buy the Black Modules any train store, put Legacy System Utility on your computer, connect your base to the computer and load the modules.

I suggest the later. It's so easy to do once you've done it. This way you can upgrade instantly when and if a new version comes out. There is also a "featured post" at the top of the Legacy forum with all the LSU and Upgrade files. 

The link at the top of this page also takes you to the download page for all the software. 

If you have some old blue modules, you can "roll your own" black modules for free.

MartyE - you say it's simple. If not, I hope you don't mind a question or two?  I've never done anything like this before. And I do have the ESE diner Railsounds car so I would like to go to 1.6.

SO what!!!

maybe the op just purchased the  ESE diner Railsounds and wants to get all the features  they can out of the item.

I followed the link posted by CJack and it was very easy to update the base and CAB to the latest firmware updates.  It is much easier to update Lionel than my MTH DCS to 5.0 firmware.  However, both are done finally the MTH version requires a telephone line that is getting harder and harder to fine to update the remote.

Hi All,

I am running 1.52, do you need to add 1.54 before 1.60?  Or does 1.60 contain 1.54.  As you can see on the Lionel site 1.54 and 1.60 are much smaller than 1.52. 

Thanks for any help.

Straight to 1.60 for the base and 1.61 for the remote for the latest versions.  You don't have to stop at the intermediate stops, the express to the destination.

Thanks, the train club will be happy 2, also running 1.52.

By the way use to shop at Hennings as a kid,  how is Lansdale these days?

It's a long trip from Texas, but you could come back for a visit.   Lansdale is probably pretty much as you remember it.

No more family there, they all mover farther out.  Good memories though.  I knew Henning when he was next to Penndale Junior Hi.  Now that's a long time ago '1975 or so'.

That was a long time ago, they've been on Line Street for ages.

What happen to the Lionel Legacy software's update webs or links, try for days to look for it no luck, none of the links works.

The service site has been down since they announced the early move. I suspect it will return once they are ready I the new facility. 

What type of computer port is needed and should it be desktop?   All I have is a new laptop.  Will lionel send modules if requested?

From above...
