As an alternative to the Hornby R8250 Controller, the Analogue Train and Accessory Controller features an improved, heavier casing, as well as an additional uncontrolled DC output with integral capacitor discharge unit (CDU) to support solenoid point motors.

The Auxiliary output can also be used to power lighting on the layout up to a current of 150mA. A recessed reduction switch also limits the output to reduce loco speed. This item does not include a transformer.

However, the required P9000 Transformer can be purchased separately.
