Just got me one of them little HLW Mack switchers, the green one. I think I only paid something like $45 for it. I runs good if the track is real clean, but any short 4 wheel loco is going to have that problem. Figur'en on mak'en a little trailing car with some more pickups to solve that problem. I've seen where several people have added battery power to'em. <br />At 8 to 12 bucks for those little car kits, I bought a bunch of them. The only beef I've got with them is the hoop and loop couplers. The hook sets alittle too high, and lifts the next car off the track. I added a tiny piece of styrene between the hooks and loops and solved that problem. They make great "cheap" bases for bashing!
