I love the hand of God reaching down to push the buttons ... just like in real life .. we can all use a bit of winding up now and then

Carey, This sounds deeper than it is...Some of those trains were so long, the locomotive at the front of the train could almost be its own pusher, too!

Thanks for posting them.

Thanks Carey!

The windup trains do require a little different style of operation than the electrics, but they are a LOT of fun...
