Ben, One thing that would be really nice that LEGO also doesn’t provide is a way to pick up track power other than the motor wheels.

Hi Rosco!

Empty out a new motor (25$) or a defected one (<10$) and you have your power pick up.... And everything is pure LEGO®. ;-)

(Just kidding but it would be nice....)
