[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by kstrong Just to clarify, you're not using track voltage to control the speed of the train, correct? For that, you've got an on-board throttle. Because if you're varying the voltage going to the track and only charging the batteries when that voltage gets above a certain threhshold, you're going to be charging your batteries only when the trains are traveling at mach 2. Later, K [/quote] That's basically correct, but only when the OTHER guy's trains are going mach 2. To be sure, the only time your locomotive could pull any track power would be when his power pack is at 100%, or even higher. On your own track you'd be running the rails at a higher voltage than anyone would want to see on their DC locomotives. Mark in Utah
