High Rail App
High Rail for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch allows you to control your Lionel Legacy Engines and Lionel LCS SensorTracks like never before.
Lionel Legacy Engine Gesture Control
control your engine's speed, direction, quilling whistle, bell and more using an awesome gesture-driven interface
The idea is simple. You want to control your engine without having to stare at your device. High Rail’s innovative gesture control feature allows you to control your engine’s most common features without having to hunt for a little button.
There are 10 unique gestures:
- Speed
- Momentum (reach target speed faster/ slower)
- Quilling Whistle
- Ding Bell
- Halt System
- Turn Bell On/Off
- Open Front Coupler
- Open Rear Coupler
- Go Forward
- Go Backward
Also, iPhone 6s users can use 3D Touch to adjust the momentum (i.e. press harder to reach target speed faster). It’s fantastic!
Gesture Assistant
