We need help! In one of our houses we display a running train. It has been nothing but problems. We started with a cheap set and it died, Then we bought a really nice Christmas Train, but it was computerized and every time it stopped, it had to be manually restarted. The cold got to it and it would barely move. After buying all new track, soldering it together to insure no gaps in electricity, it still wouldn't work. So we went out and bought the Polar Express Lionel  train set last year from a local hobby shop who said it would do the job. It did not run well at all, and this year when it was set up it wouldn't run at all.

The local shop no longer repairs trains (figures) says we need to send it to Lionel. Unfortunately there is no time left for that.

We need your idea's.

We need an engine that will run for the 20 nights the festival is open.

This is in Massachusetts where it can get in the teens at night during December

We can put a small heater in the house to help combat the cold.

The track is O scale and just a small oval

The kids love to see the train running and we would hate not having one.

 

Please contact Bob or Dale with any idea's

Thank You
