(...) Hmmm. Spacing was never a problem for me. (Perhaps because I do not use the buffers). Mike, is this the problem to which you are referring (decoupling)? Since my passenger cars are so heavy, there seems to be a limit as to how many I can pull (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

I found one today at Target for $50! Also got 4 DDKs for $25 each. I cleaned out every target in the area (4 of them) except for the one that had 6 DDKs at %59.90. I will get them next week when they hit $25. My wife is supposed to get the ones down (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.robotics)

The problem is that the turns are so sharp that the cars clip the corner by as much as 6-8 studs, depending on the length of the car. An extra magnet or two won't help. I put one straight between the curved sections and although it looks a little (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
