Relating to Lionel's new LionChief + diesel set listed in the new catalog, how will remote work with FT Powered "A" unit and optional powered FT "B" unit. Will they run off of one remote?

Although I do not know for certain. I would assume the "B" unit is designed to respond from the same frequency as the powered "A" unit. Then you would only need one remote.

People have posted on the forum of double heading engines that are LC+ when they are the same engine and they need only use 1 remote. I would assume lionel is using the same approach. It will be quite dummy proof this way. you could always pose this question to Ask Lionel email.

On page 86 of the catalog, (lower left corner text) Lionel says they do. "

One remote. Maybe I imagined it, but wasn't this one of the topics discussed on the Notch 6 podcast with the guys from Lionel?

Yes, you are right, I remember that now that I read it in your post.
