Does anyone own one of these cranes? It is a Walthers (powered) HO self propelled crane. [IMG]http://us.st4.yimg.com/store2.yimg.com/I/internettrains_1793_153171626[/IMG] From what I understand, the rigging of all the cables is very extensive. What I would like to know is how well do one of these actually run on the track. Though it is self propelled, the actual crane parts have to be operated by hand. It would really be something if someone sold a crane that not only was self propelled, but that all of the crane operations on it were powered as well. Anyway, I would just like to get some opinions as to weather or not this particullar crane runs pretty smooth on a track, does it have flywheels like engines do? All opinions will be greatly appreciated. John
