You are preaching to the choir here Nigels, LOL. I thought I saw a video from one of our members here that showed a layout of many different Trackmaster Revolution action sets connected in one layout. At least I think I saw it. Maybe it was while I was browsing YouTube videos that I saw it. I don't own any of the Revolution trains or sets but what I have seen on YouTube is that a lot of the sets only run a lone tank engine (no tender) or an engine and one car only to make it through the gimmicks.
I am reminded of the old HO racing car track way back when it was just side by side flat tracks or a hill and they were quite fun. Then they all tried to improve themselves and came out with sets that had loop-de-loops and tracks that would run up the side of walls. I thought they went a little too circus then as I do with what these new Revolution sets are doing now. Which reminds me, I should get out all my pictures of my large HO racing car layout I made as a youth and post it here.
