    I was wondering if anyone had tried to use a drawbar to conduct power between locos? I was thinking of trying one to use the tender of a Märklin Mikado as additional power pickup. I'm think of using a two-sided PC board.

    you might be easier to make up something like the ICE and other lighted cars use, with a plastic bar (snaps on/off) with side contacts. This is what Kato and others use too.
