Hey train fans,
My latest creation. A train that lays out track as it goes.
See gallery for all
pictures and movies
The principle is extremely simple: A pile of tracks slides on the previously
layed out tracks, pushed in front of the train. The lowest track piece will
fall off the edge and continue sliding on tiles until it hits a stop brick that
will keep it in the correct position. The gap between tracks is one stud, which
is small enough for the train to pass. The train uses the RC train base.
Be sure to check out the movies. It looks pretty cool when the train runs.
All comments are welcome
