Hi!
I have one of the Duplo battery trains from when I worked as a model
builder. We pulled out the old track and new track that my new daughter has
when her cousins were over.
Old train with new smart elements: Sometimes it stops the train, mostly the
new elements cause it to be confused, but the track works fine.
New train on old push track : I had J1 bring over some of the old push
track. The new trains work fine on it, but they slip on the hill/bridge piece.
Hope that helps.
