A review of the first elements from the FX Track system
Arrow replied to zephyr1934's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Will they fix the colour? Seems pretty different from the original 9v Dark Gray- 199 replies

- wide radius curves
- 9v

(and 2 more)

How do you stick the "sponge" under the chassis? Glue?
-
Any news about the release?
-
So it is a fast shipping?
-
I ve read that MEModels tracks are no shipped anymore. And stopped the production...
-
Hi all! I m writing from EU. What are the companies that make custom 9v curves of various radius? I saw some of them, but in USA!
-
Add 2 motors, to make longer trains! I did that on my 12 carriage of the 7745!
-
What are the news in the next update?

[MOC] 12v and 4,5v trains ideas - let's keep alive the "Gray Era"

Those white windows cost a fortune! -
Hai qualche foto in più di questa test station?
-
What camera do you use to show in a little tablet/monitor the view?
-
Bello! I m from Cuneo, so I know that line very well ;)
-
As quite all the changes on packages or on the pieces, I believe that this was made to increase the productivity.
-
Thanks!

This method is useful also with 12v tracks ;)

Ok, in a recent event here where I live, I linked all the motors together. It works, A LOT. See the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHoyxc-lk4s

Thnaks a lot man ;)
-
ah yeah! I use 2 motors in trains like 7740 7745 7755, the buffer is on the motor anyway.
-
Yeah I know that, I was thinking that the 12v's method of picking up the power has some problem instead the 9v. That one picks up ALWAYS power, the 12v suffers of gaps and bad contacts. Yeah, we need to take some measures from the end to the last motor till the first contact of the first motor. But if we connect 2 motors and we create the isolated power rail, if the first motor go over that isolation, the last motor continue to pull all the train alone due the contact under it (takes the electricity not from the first motor but from they contacts). So, IMHO the wires only needs for bad contacts of 2 motors throught the normal use, the motor that have the best contacts can help the other one. But if I need to use the "traffic light set", I need to increase the speed of the train, to help the only working motor to pull the train for that few cms missing to the interruption rail with the inertial energy. Correct? Its not correct, both motors runs until the last motor go over the interruption point. I dont understand that part

But a 9v motor take always electricity, instead of a 12v motor...
-
If I use a wire to connect 2 9v motors, could we consider it useless?
-
Yeah, I was thinking about it right now...lets make some wire!
