I am a bit surprised that noone have responded yet, cause it is really great work. Mostly I like the cars, the passenger car is just great, it gives me some ideas for a project I once stopped. Minimum use of parts which gives plenty of room in the (...) (21 years ago, 17-Dec-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Great idea! I just tried this with the speed regulator set to level 4 (6 being max) and it reduces the impact considerably, but there's still enough power for a reliable throw. I've been using the motorized switches with my RCX (running LACC) (...) (21 years ago, 17-Dec-03, to lugnet.trains)
