If it?s too good to be true, then it is generally false.
A principle that I have learned over the years, sometimes expensively. But we are always on the look out for a bargain and advances in technology can offer almost unimaginable performance for a modest price.
So when I read about Gamesontrack GT-position
http://www.gamesontrack.co.uk/
I was intrigued. I don?t believe the inference of using GPS technology. If that?s available to the general public then I have been sadly deceived by sat nav!
However I don?t know what technology they actually use. So we are back to my opening statement.
Does anyone have experience with this system on a garden railway, especially with tunnels and other ?blind? spots?
There are many problems with the traditional track detection systems that I would love to avoid so I would like to be sure that this system is worth investing a significant sum.
They state that its not available for all G scale systems (item 10) on

so that only makes me wonder more what exactly they offer.
Looking at their listed UK supplier (DCC Supplies) seems to infer that its a voice activated interface to an existing (by others) control system. That's quite different to the manufacturer's website.
