Bachmann has not done any R/C models since the one you have. Bachmann is releasing large scale locomotives four ways:
• Standard (i.e. not DCC ready)
• DCC ready
• decoder equipped
• decoder equipped with sound.
DCC On Board is Bachmann’s phrase for decoder equipped.
R/C control system using battery on board is an after market add-on. Several systems are available (not from Bachmann). Some of the best are made by Remote Control Systems.
DCC uses track to deliver power/DCC signal except CVP produces a battery on board system called AirWire 900 using DCC technology and using their T9000 wireless throttle.
