You have a model railroad. You have an ECoS digital command station from ESU or a Central Station from Märklin. You also have an iPhone or an iPod touch from Apple and a wireless network so you can surf the web from the iPhone or iPod.

Would you like to run your trains from the iPhone or iPod?
You can - with TouchCab Free.

So what is TouchCab Free?

TouchCab Free is a handheld controller for your model railroad. With TouchCab Free you can follow your trains around your layout without having to worry about plugging and unplugging a wired device as you move along.

- Control all the locomotives defined in the command station.
- Access up to 8 functions of each locomotive.
- Clear overview of the locomotive’s speed and state.
- Easily change the throttle from left- to right handed operation.
- Wireless network connection to the command station.
