If LEGO does do an RC train, I suspect it would be made to go alongside the existing 9V train and be made as either a Duplo product or a Jack Stone/4+ type product. Such a product would compete with products like Fisher Price Geotrax (which, IIRC, (...) (21 years ago, 4-Aug-05, to lugnet.trains)

For instance, see these three interpretations of the same castle at three different scales by (...) (21 years ago, 4-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
