Thats a terrific point. Too bad watching this snail at full throttle is is
like something like watching grass grow. I actually was going to pull the
motor out and give up, but nice people at Lego are sending me a replacement
engine. So for now the motorization gets a stay of exectution which could
mean the I'll have a chance to revisit the idea here in the near future.
I was actually thinking about making some decals for my next .train
creation, guess that it would be fairly easy to make a little track
inspector decal or something
thanks for the good suggestions.
