75 -- TMCC, Legacy, and DCS both on home layout and at the club. Also speak Acela.

I just set up a google form, anyone who would like to take the "survey" can go ahead and do it at this link:
https://goo.gl/forms/CboF0q8ZvWBoI4zL2
After maybe a day or two we can release the results (don't worry names are completely private) and delete the "survey."
BTW: It even includes those of us who are in other scales!
Just my opinion, but I do not think this is such a good idea. Since there have already been 80+ replies here on the Forum, introducing another method for replying will just muddy the waters and possibly lead to duplicate responses skewing the end result. Plus, I'd bet most of us on here know nothing about google forms (I certainly plead ignorance).
Paul Edgar, I will be 70 next month. I use strictly conventional. Someday I may try TMCC
70-DCS/Legacy-TMCC/LC-LC+/Conventional HHRC & Conventional Control only.

45 - DCS Explorer & LC+ but only because I'm forced to. I just got started in 3-rail and as soon as I saw the Legacy/DCS systems I thought, what a clunky mess! It's a no-brainer this hobby has to migrate to tablets/phones. This whole thing is going Bluetooth and the sooner the better!

I tabulated posts 1 through 80. There are 73 responses. 19 posters (26.0%) are conventional users. 38 posters (52.1%) are command control users and 16 posters (21.9%) use both conventional and command control. The average age of conventional users is 48.7 years. The average age of command control users is 57.7 years. The average age of those using conventional and command control is 55.3 years.

35. DCS & Legacy. Mostly Conventional under the Christmas Tree in December.
52 - Legacy and LC
86 TMCC & Conventional with Cab1. Not operating layout currently.
67 - conventional AC and DC, DCC, DCS, Märklin Digital, clockwork, live steam
53 on Monday...Legacy, DCS, Conventional, LC, LC+. All via remotes or Apps where applicable.
69 just got started in 3 rail, LC controller or iphone. Formally old American Flyer, and HO. Lionchief is super fun for little kids, let alone the 12 year old trapped in this body.

I'll be 57 next week. All conventional, all the time.
Not for nothing, but doesn't this forum have a way to set up an actual poll? That way this info might be more useful.
65 - I run conventional and am in the process of updating to DCS.
54
O: Conventional and DCS
G: NCE DCC
71 and run Legacy only.
63 and run a Legacy and Lion Chief layout.

By the way, this Forum has the option to set up a survey under Post on the right near the top of the page. You may have to be a digital subscriber though, not sure.
53
DCS, TMCC & Convential
65 - Conventional only, with plans but no immediate funding to add some LC+
60
TMCC, Legacy, DCS, LionChief, Conventional
65 - TMCC & Legacy
53.
03R: Conventional and (reluctantly) TMCC. I need TMCC to run TMCC and Legacy scale engines which do not operate well conventionally (not that they operate all that well on TMCC, either, given the problems I am having with engines being so touchy about clean track and rollers).
0n30: Conventional and (reluctantly) DCC. I need DCC because our club layout uses it, and some of my engines are not dual mode.
02R: Conventional. Just dabbling with antediluvian AHM stuff. It will NOT be DCCed.
58 in three weeks. All conventional all the time.
Steven J. Serenska
44 - DCS

Will do an N-Scale Conventional at some point for my Father-in-Laws Trains

Really like the fact that there are a whole lot of guys, running a whole lot of trains....
64. Overhead is DCS. Table is conventional, DCS, LCP. Also have TMCC, but no longer use it.

51 ~ Conventional, with a lone LionChief Pennsy 0-8-0. I would like to add a few more LC so I can switch away from the transformer.
Rusty
73 Lionchief and Lionchief +

I could actually run the results through my statistics software that I use for work and see if we can come up with any interesting correlations.
