Only poor thing is that the cab lighting only comes on with running lights, it can't be switched off separately

Edit: It needs two decoders, one for the power car and one for the dummy power car

I am a bit confused about the mrk 3 situation. Are all these new grand central carriages in my local model shop the new mrk 3's? they look no different to the old ones? are they the ones priced at £20?
