Nice! Did not know you could hook it up via your iPhone/iPod Touch. Noted for future references.

You could do it with any phone. Wifi/BT capabilities would be preferred.

Looks like a work in progress, but it might be cool when its finalized. Theres a bit of delay between the command and the network, maybe useless to use through another system. Maybe best to rig up a Arduino MC w/ the functions, and add a servo to eliminate nearly a shit-ton of hardware, then use whatever you want as a remote.

The awesome thing is that you can use up to like 10 throttles via JMRI wifi.

The only time I'd worry about a delay would be if theres a derail..

Even with that being the case I could use the physical command center/throttle to emergency off..
