Any Ideas for Accessory to feed dog Treats?

I would think that a dump car that dumps the treats into a tray would be the way to go.  You might even be able to modify the tray into a short chute that gets the treats further away from the track.  You would have to customize your own activator, or find one of the K-Line remote dump cars and the K-Line remote to activate it (K-Line by Lionel re-ran the remote, so they shouldn't be too hard to find).

I too was thinking of a dump car, but it would dump all at once. Maybe something on the dump car so 1 would come out at a time. A foot switch the dog could press.It would dump it off the table and the dog would get it. I think you would need a dump car with a "shoe" to activate the dump so the train could dump while it is moving.

Could you modify the culvert loader to do the trick?  It would be  stitch to have it first unload a bunch of them . . .

use either the ice delivery shed from Lionel

or the barrel loader from american flyer

A Lionel rocket launcher.

 

You can play go fetch.

That's quite the uncoupler you have there.  I too was thinking of an operating dump car, as I watched the video.  You could even try a Lionel log dump car.  The kind with plunger bottom.  One of those treats could sit on it and when triggered by op track section the treat could fly off.  You could shorten the spring to make it fly further.

I use this thing called my hand to feed Rocky the treats.  Anything but that would be detrimental to that piece

A lionel missle launching car can throw a milkbone quite a distance.  You can also use Puparoni pieces as they lay on the launcher nicely.

I would guess a reputable dog trainer would caution against associating trains with food. Having said that, a wet nose touching the outside and center rails at the same time makes for an interesting reaction.

These are some great ideas. I always wanted to incorporate an Ice Station on my Milwaukee Road lines now I have an excuse to buy two. The missle launcher sounds like fun too. Dump cars & misle launchers will deffinately be on my shopping list for the next train show.

 

Thanks for the input everyone
