    See how big a gap in the rails a train can get across! Amazing!

    I watched this about a month ago and was amazed at how well the real thing tracked. I found it to be a great video!

    Man that was amazing... so real trains must be running DCC with some big super caps.... I was also surprised how much energy is in those little plastic explosives.
