Yes, no need for motors - soon John will be making trains so wide you can sit on them and propel them along with your feet - all the time making “chuff-chuff” and “woo-woo” noises.

That’s funny! True, but funny.

BTW, Jason, we in the states don’t make “chuff-chuff” noises. We have learned to “peep peep”, but that is where we draw the line. It’s all about “Woo-woo!” and Choo-choo!”, all the while trying to recreate the effect of the Doppler effect:-)
