WiThrottle Cab vs RailControl Unit

WiThrottle Cab is an application that turns your devices into handheld controllers for your model railroad. With WiThrottle Cab, you can follow your trains around your layout without having to worry about plugging and unplugging a wired device as you move along. Using a wireless network connection and WiThrottle-compatible command stations connected to the network, WiThrottle Cab can be used to run trains and control turnouts, and other accessories that are configured in the command station.
