Jon did you ever get a chance to research the issue mentioned in the post below? I need to buy a Legacy base to replace one I gave to a friend. But the latest batch are being delivered with v1.4 and I would like to be sure my Cruise Commander locos will work. Thanks, and thanks especially for sharing your time and knowledge with us on the OGR Forum!!

Of course, the major issue is that you can't run in reverse!
Note that this locomotive works perfectly in TMCC or CAB1 emulation. It's a standard Lionel TMCC package with the ERR Cruise Commander M in 100 step mode.
I will have a look later today and see if I can reproduce this concern. All the R100 mode is really is a CAB-1 mode with a speed graph. The graph adds a nice touch, nd it sends relative throttle commands up and down. The DIR key is the same as CAB-1 mode. Still something could be broken, so I will post with my results.
For those unhappy with the V1.4 upgrade path:
V1.4, as Chris mentions, is simply a few small feature additions and ZWL transformer support. Those folks who purchase the ZWL, will get V1.4 (in the ZWL box) as it is required. All other users do not needV1.4!!! We make it available for those who wish to upgrade.
