From a earlier query from Mr. Yard Master I have another question. 

Will the EZ command Plus (44933) work with the discontinued EZ command walkaround companion (44908) and the EZ command walkaround controller (44907)?

The reason I ask this is the PLUS doesn't address whether the older discontinued walkaround will also be supported by the new Plus..., that is, backward compatible.  I'm hoping you'll say "Yes", cause I have several of the older EZ controllers and walkarounds.

Hi Ralph,

The E-Z Command Walkaround controllers are still compatible with the E-Z Command Plus. Please note that when using the Walk-Around Companion, you will be limited to 28-speed steps and functions FO-F4 for all 9 addresses.

This is good news.  So now, when will Bachmann update the EZ command to recognize multi numbered locos instead of just the one number loco ID?

By the way, not interested in "Bachmann 36505 Dynamis E-Z Digital Command" system.  I like dials, not push buttons.
