(...) Well, yes, true. You're envisioning the train motor being directly controlled by the onboard RCX. Takes lots of batteries (which is a standard way to do things) However one interesting twist would be to have the train motor be UNCONTROLLED, (...)

(...) That's what I was thinking in the original "spirit of the game". (...) The track (I think) is electricly isolated from each end...if there was a electrical connection, then the track would short out due to polarity. What about a switch? I (...)

All right, I'm piping up. It sounds like a great idea, and a good excuse for me to get some train parts. I'm not clear on what Ben meant about the track configuration though. I was thinking that it could have two tracks in parallel, and they could (...) (22 years ago, 8-May-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I guess its boils down to how many objective points one can get. Let's break down the game... hypothetically, in this type of layout you have 3 tables, 2 crossings, 1 flag (and a partrige in a pear-tree...) Since the "spirit of the game" is to (...)
