I'm really sorry to bother everyone here, I'm not a model train fanatic, but I do have an old Thomas the tank engine at home. I am a cinema worker in Australia, and for the upcoming release of Finding Nemo, we have to set up a display to win $5000. Thats all good n'all, but the thing that I REALLY want to do, to make the display stunning, is get schools of cardboard fish and attatch them to my model trains, and have them moving throughout the display. The trains would be operating below a paper mache terrain, with the fish attatched to carriges moving above the surface of the terrain. My question is, will there be a problem with running this trainset for very extended periods of time (we are talking 9am till 11.30 pm, daily, for 3 weeks.) [?] Will it simply blow the motor in the train (the train will be moving as slow as possible mind you),???? [?] If it won't ruin the train motor, then will it ruin the transformer that give the track power? here is the ideas page... please help me! http://film-it.servehttp.com:8000/viewtopic.php?t=613&highlight= my email is markfay@tpg.com.au if you feel the need to contact me there!!!
