The idea between mixing a battery with powered rails would be to have the batteries carry you across those sections of bad track while charging the batteries when you do have an electrical connection. The additional cost would be minimal, and it would prolong your run time to "forever" while using a smaller battery pack. You'd also be able to run smoke and other power-hungry thing you'd want. If you powered everything from the battery you could easily get by with 50% or less electrical pickup from the rails. You'd get this just by the hit-or-miss while ooperating the trains. The only track you'd "have to " keep clean would be the storage track where the batteries would automatically be recharged at the end of the day. Just an idea.... Mark in Utah
