I am getting back into the hobby after decades. I saw that MYH has new DCS system coming out. If I order the MTH 50-1039 - ProtoSound DCS WiFi Digital Command System 2 what else would I need? I plan to use my phone and tablet to run the trains.
#1 a DCS equipped PS2 or PS3 engine
#2 some track
#3 a power supply (transformer) (typically 18V AC with enough current for the train 3-5A-can be more)
#4 your tablet or phone compatible with the DCS app
