The quick and dirty fix I tossed together for a while that helped a bit was to put a couple of mini zip-ties on the "loop" side of the coupler (don't know the official term, the opposite of the "hook" side), one on either side of the hook, centered in the loop, so the trailing coupler of one car steered the leading coupler of the next car. There was still the issue of the wheels not rolling at the same rate, so one invariably dragged along the surface of the track to some degree. <br /><br />A larger diameter loop would lessen the difference that the wheels roll and would presumably help matters (not to mention look better). Wheels that operate independently would probably help more I'd think. Off to the shop to check 'em out in person...<br /><br />
