Hey Andrew,
Good to see you again. I'm glad to see you back and hope to see some progress on that switching layout. In answer to your question, Railpro doesn't care where it gets its power from. DC, DCC, Railpro (filtered DC) power, battery, etc....it's all the same to Railpro. Railpro uses the power from DCC without regard to the DCC signal. All Railpro functions will work as normal.
On a side note, Railpro does have backwards compatibility with DCC, should you want it. It practice you will likely never use the function, but it's there. If desired you can turn on DCC mode on the locomotive modules, then control the Railpro-locomotives with a DCC controller and run them with your other DCC-equipped locomotives. It goes without saying that you lose all Railpro functionality when running in DCC mode. No load-sharing, no two-way communication, etc. But it works. I'll post a video on it soon.

I wanted to post again to say that I am officially a RailPro user after receiving the basics to get started for my Birthday (CI-1, LM-3S, and a PBM-2)! Now I have to decide which locomotive will be the first to get RailPro!

Hi, My name is Greg and I live in Melbourne, Australia. I've been using HO since the late 1960's and I'm looking to convert my four DC locomotives and other accessories to DCC / Rail Pro. I'm impressed with Rail Pro's ease of use. I'm hoping to find some users and a stockist in Australia. Thank you for the opportunity to discuss with your members.
