True Futuristic Train from Tomy

[Super]

I wouldn't think that the tracks are powered as they have all those round magnets to oppose the powered train around. I also would assume that there would be no voltage drop because the tracks aren't powered. But I must admit that I don't base my thinking on any knowledge of how these work. What I don't see is if the train has rechargables, does it recharge in the station and if it does then is it batterys charging batterys which makes no sense so in my mind the station should be powered by house current with a transformer like you say. Very curious to learn more about this set although I am not interested in owning one.
