I really like the cowl (or whatever they are called) between the coaches. Is this train a metal windup? Wonder how much it would take to motorize it?

Have you seen the other two trains this site is offering, again both tin plate and wind-up;

Three Car Train

Scylling Express

Having said that there is a very negative review on one, but that's maybe because it was given to a child - they look more like collectibles to me Smile

Thanks Nigels

I had no idea they were still available and an American company. I picked up a damaged silver one very cheaply on Ebay just to see if I can somehow use those in between the coaches cowls on any Plarail train.

the plarail hoot and toot chuggington set needs those cowls. keen to see if you have success, super. might be a mod if/when i get them.

I also am curious to see how they would work an any of our monorails in addition to any trains like the Amtrak but they may be a tad too big but I shall see and report back when I receive it. Also if they can be removed and or altered without much trouble.

Get 2: one for mods and 1 for show and running. They are pretty cool, but they run best on wooden track.
