If it helps: I ask, I even beg for big train wheels! (Smaller than 396 ones,
bigger than 7750 ones.) And please add a hole for connecting rods and please
make them in red and black.... To syncronise them (left + right side) please
make them fitting for use of a technik axle.

For an easy start make up a quarter piece of straight track and 9V wheel sets
in dark grey and red.

For the minifig pack I wish to see an orange constructors helmet.

Kind Regards,

Ben
