http://www.dccspecialties.com/ DCC Specialties makes ( made? )
several powerful controllers for model railroads. Their two switch motor controllers are
called the http://www.dccspecialties.com/products/hare-ng.htm Hare and
http://www.dccspecialties.com/products/wabbit_review.htm Wabbit. They also make an
intelligent block detector called the
http://www.dccspecialties.com/products/bwatcher.htm Block Watcher, and the powerful
http://www.dccspecialties.com/products/powershield_x.htm PSX and
http://www.dccspecialties.com/products/powershield_x.htm PSX-AR power controllers.
<p>These can do a lot of things, but it can require some work to configure them.</p>

<h3>Third Party info</h3>
<p>Brett Scott and Denny Whitaker have written JMRI scripts to assist with programming these,
and provided a nice <a href="https://mgbrr.org/Tips">writeup</a> of how to use them. The
writeup also covers how they document their layout, and discusses the pros and cons of
several ways of connecting the Hare and Wabbit.</p>
<p>You can download <a href="https://www.jmri.org/jython/dccspecialties/">their scripts</a> from
the JMRI website, and it also available in the <a href="https://www.jmri.org/jython/">sample
scripts directory</a> in the <a href="https://www.jmri.org/download/">JMRI downloads</a>.</p>
