[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by grandpopswalt Cappy, I agree. Battery power is the only way to go. Problem is that it adds a fair amount of cost and as you point out, it adds a quite a bit of complexity, for now at least. It would be a simple matter for manufacturers to design and install a simple switch or jumper circuit which would make a locomotove battery/RC ready. Walt [/quote] Walt, I think a "jumper" to a specially designed battery car with a switch...or as with my cell phone...the ability to recharge from the track. It wouldn't require more than a simple addition to a circuit in the tender somewhere. Mass produced battery power would eventually come down in price. There wouldn't have to be radical redesigns of current prototypes...but rather just that one extra wire to the battery chord. Those of you manufacturers who are reading this can have that idea for free!!! Capt Carrales
