This was the concept derived by Wes Raynor (whose name is in the video) who was the man responsible for and started off Mardave, I believe he switched to this when he sold up at Mardave as far as I know

Sounds good, especially aiming at people that like the whole realism when they build railways with realistic scenery etc!

I'm sure this is a very similar system / idea to what they use at Legoland with the cars that you see driving about the mini towns on their own? They have a wire under the ground and a single AA battery with various charge points around the city / track where the car will stop and charge itself.

Looks good though, just hard to imagine it becoming a mainstream technology if you know what I mean? Seems a bit complex so I'm not sure I can see it being for sale in a proper kit form like Scalextric but maybe more of a specialist thing??

Does look good though, i'm sure it would be fun with a decent size track and a few cars going round.
