Question one, Digital Command Control
2,3 control multiple trains and accessories with a handheld device. These trains need a chip to be seen by the system. The accessories need a receiver. Many systems are available.
Yes it can control switches.
Search DCC in the forum and readup. It is best to be well informd before purchasing.

DCC Engines vs. DC Engines

With DCC in mind, how does the cost$ differ between engines DC/DCC ?
I am in the planning stages and the way I connect the track will depend on the use.
