Hello, I am wanting to add a magnet to a Lionel 6-2316 gantry crane. Is it possible? If it is, what do I need? Is it a simple project or not worth it? Your input is much appreciated.

Nick, I would think it is pretty simple. If you have a magnet you can put on the hook, install a dc power supply and tie that to a switch someplace near your crane controller so you can turn the magnet on and off. You will need some small gauge wire so it won't be too obvious. Just make it an independent feature from your current controller.

Here is a magnet for sale on that auction site for $20
