Hi,I have the new Texas Special Diner car with the Stationsounds system. My remote has 1.52 on it, I was able to program the car fine but I want to know if I'm missing out on any features of the car because I'm not on 1.60. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1y61wXPMyQ My video on the car.

1.6 was released for use with the new Legacy sound cars. From what I remember it helps them operate correctly with Legacy.
Alright, but then why does it work just fine on 1.52?
Then leave it at 1.5 but here are the release notes.
The changes made from v1.54 to 1.6 were as follows:
---------------------------------------------
* Adds support for Legacy Station Sounds Diner cars.
* Adds new TxIR (Transmit IR) button to the "Custom" tab of the CAB2 display. This feature is for use with upcoming Lionel SensorCar, which allow trains pulled by older locomotives to work with SensorTrack.
* Allows proper CAB2/SensorTrack configuration of current or future products with SensorTrack compatibility, such as Subway, Breakdown B-unit, Freight Car, Station Sounds cars and Legacy Crane/Boom Car.
* Train builder: Fixed bug where Train Link wasn't automatically set on accessories, passenger car, etc. when that device's TMCC ID was between 1 to 9
Thanks.

That's exactly what I did.
Look at the NOTE. For optimum operation. 1.6. It maybe working but 1.6 seems to fine tune it. I don't have one so I don't know but I suspect they have a reason for mentioning this.
True. I'll try upgrading my system and seeing if that changes anything. Although I don't think it will, it can't hurt to try.
