The head of the PFS group is on holidays presently but I will pass this list
on to him in the new year and Ill pass it through the Ambassadors program
now in case that gets different results. I suspect that some of this may be
answered and most of it will not (in some cases because it hasnt yet been
decided).

Understandable that some of it may not be answerable right now, but even
having access to some of it would help a lot at upcoming shows. Thanks for
the help.

I forgot to link to
http://www.trains-n-town.com/article.php?story=20080325190555443 which in part
answers some of your questions. Railbricks 2
(http://www.railbricks.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=20&Itemid=43)
has some extra info from Steve B. Unfortunately I wouldnt hold your breath for
anything not covered in those articles but I have passed along the questions.
As for what to tell people at shows: just tell them that therell be a new train
line sometime within the next year or so and that IR and powered track train
motors will be compatible with it.
Likewise you could tell them that for large train layouts the new system will be
less versatile so if theyre serious about participating in them they should try
to stock up on old track and motors too. If they just want to run a few trains
around their home then they can easily buy IR trains and add a battery box and
sensor later.
