I really like the work you did (should have said this sooner)!!
While going through my LEGO train links I found a work built by another
train enthusiast in 2000.

It looks like you didn't have to go through the headache of drawing the
power from the rails like what was done in prior works (check the bottom of
the page to see what he did).
I just might want to make a copy of your creation (got 20+ years of Technic
racks doing nothing).
Again great work!
