There are about 25 automatic control playlists, 6 train layout playlists {show trains, but no automatic controls}, and 2 miscellaneous playlists.

The automatic controls playlists’ numbers begin with “A” (A01- A17), and “DC” or “DCC” (DC18 – DCC25) for the last 8 playlists.

• This link shows ALL Youtube playlists for videos made by James Ingram (aka AutoControls.org). Unfortunately, since Youtube gives you no “A-Z” option to display them in alphabetical order, they display in a JUMBLED order. (vimeo playlists)
