(...) Use a battery box to light the lights. This has the advantage of adding some weight too, which could be useful. So the unit has to be seperable at some point? Or does it have to use a magnetic coupling? Or does it just need to be some number (...) (23 years ago, 16-May-01, to lugnet.trains)

Well if you build your train right you can get away with "just gunning it". If it's too light then you do get a lot of wheel spin, of course too heavy and you slow the train down. And yes there is a width limit, I failed to mention that in my (...) (23 years ago, 16-May-01, to lugnet.trains)

WOW! That is terrific! I love it!! I am impressed with the technology too! I would assume part of the skill is not just gunning it full speed on the green light, but rather quickly working up to speed for better traction. Oh and I assume with your (...)

Thanks to everyone for the ideas. I'm still not sure how I will do the ends with the correct window details. As I mentioned before, a set of gray 2x3 windows would do the trick. But I don't have a slew of Metroliners. So I might settle on stickers (...) (23 years ago, 16-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
