I have a Broadway Limited Paragon 2 and a Graham Farish BR Blue Class 40 sound.

I've been enjoying that Class 40 immensely,  but I want more. My layout is DC, so I'm wondering if that MRC Tech 6 is compatible with British N Gauge?

I'm not going to fully DCC my layout, but am curious and interested in this controller if it will work with both American and British N Scale sound locos.

I may have taken a dive I can't take back: sound is awesome! I'd rather have 3,4,5 with sound than 15, 20 without.
Spend as little as possible on what you need so you can spend as much as possible on what you want.

I think the MRC Tech 6 would work fine (I use an old Tech2 for DC UK / Euro / Japanese and Canadian though I'm not sure its well thought of.

What are you looking for in a controller?

I'm a DC roundy-round guy. I want to hear some more of the locos sounds. Maybe run 2-3 locos in a consist.

The hand-held is supposed to help that.

I have DCC and DC (different layouts) and it retrospect I'd just be a straight DC guy (I like roundy roundy stuff too). Personally I'd see if you can go to a show and pickup a 2nd hand MRC Tech 4 or Tech 2, just make sure that it works before buying.  I picked up a 2nd hand Dual Tech4 for CDN$40, and I also have an old Tech 2, both work great with everything from my 45 yr old ROCO and Farish stuff right up to my latest Kato / Atlas / Minitrix
