I can see a train motor every other car, but I presume the red wheels then are

train that gets its drive from half-bushes with minifig car tyres, suspended
between the wheel sets of a bogey.  The bogey pivots about a vertical axle
drive.  Is the ferris wheel a similar arrangement?

I'd love to see more pictures of this train.  I've tried to do an animated
dragon, but it can't get enough power from rolling wheels and a technic motor
slaved from the train motor is similarly weak.  I think my only option is a
battery box and a separate motor.

Hey Jason, I am trying to get you in touch with the member who built this train,
but your email is bouncing. Can you send me a current email address so I can
pass it on to him?
