joe123 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Hi have anyone used the Magorail car system? And if yes how did you find it. Was it ok on a steep climb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Portoman Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Everard Junction has video on youtube lately using Magorail. Looks good- easy to setup. With regards using inclines, it would probably depend on weight of vehicles used. Even on flat it seems only cars look ok. He could only use cab of truck on his layout.

0 Broithe Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I've never seen a Magnorail in action, but, if the weight of the vehicle on a slope does become an issue, defeating the magnetic force, then it might be possible to increase that effect by fitting an extra small, powerful magnet in the vehicle itself? If more than one magnet was fitted, they would need to be spaced correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the idea of a cyclist moving on part of a layout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
