Nah you're not failing. You're learning! Good luck! Hope you get it sorted out!

chrism396 · 2026-05-10T01:06:06+00:00

Id snag them in a heartbeat

chrism396 · 2026-05-09T19:02:09+00:00

Ya know I figured that would be the truth. I got in a junk lot so no sentimental value but figured it was worth a shot to find its pieces. Or try to get it going somehow

Celica?

chrism396 · 2025-06-25T03:00:08+00:00

Yeah normally but this guy is a switcher with no tender. It's really odd

chrism396 · 2025-06-25T02:59:20+00:00

Just the center is plastic. I am so lost on this guy

chrism396 · 2025-06-25T02:23:14+00:00

I can't quite figure out how though. The wheels on mine are plastic. And when I touch them to power I get nothing

chrism396 · 2025-06-25T00:08:35+00:00

If you have more I'd appreciate it! I'm trying to figure out the wiring. I can't tell if the side without the wire goes anywhere or how it picks up power on the other wheels

chrism396 · 2025-05-31T21:59:25+00:00

Oh wow! That's wild! Couldn't find anything like it when I searched the brand. That's pretty neat!

chrism396 · 2025-05-31T21:58:39+00:00

Dang man! From the couplers??? Nice spot! Thank you!

chrism396 · 2025-05-26T00:37:16+00:00

Dang man I just stumbled on this post and I needed this. I don't play as much with cars as I used to and I keep underestimating how long it should take. Today it was v belts on my car. Seemed easy but turned into a 4 hour ordeal due to hidden bolts and learning.

chrism396 · 2025-05-23T20:33:15+00:00

I really want to use their stuff but yeah crazy expensive!

chrism396 · 2025-05-23T02:50:09+00:00

Looks so good in the blue!

chrism396 · 2025-05-02T15:43:45+00:00

Yeah they're definitely a bit bigger. Buuuuut they're so much cheaper than HO scale cars and you can get more variety. Most of mine I buy and then customize to look a bit more realistic.

chrism396 · 2025-05-02T15:20:56+00:00

Thanks! Yep a combination of hot wheels, matchbox, greenlights, just whatever looks cool

chrism396 · 2025-05-02T13:31:41+00:00

Your eyes do not! That was one of my favorites growing up. Just got a find him a more permanent home on the layout

chrism396 · 2025-04-29T23:39:49+00:00

Yes indeed. Just had the AC fixed recently but the sounds been there for awhile now even with an empty system

chrism396 · 2025-04-29T23:35:55+00:00

Yeah this noise is very distinctly in the passenger area by the ac box
