Critique my train design please

Hey Comatose, since I visit only every so often or so, just wondering where you are going with this? Backyard coaster? Designing for a company? Or starting your own? Just curious. The design looks good, but what do I know.

And yes, nice polygonal wheels! You should definitely patent that.

Hey Janfredrick.

Kinda a backyard coaster with a twist; it's actually for a vacation bible school. Yes you can insert the obligitory simpsons reference if you must. So it'll be a kiddiecoaster, at least with all three cars on. Take it down to one car and change a computer setting a bit and it will definitely NOT be a kiddie coaster anymore.

The mechanism prototype should be operational in late june and the full thing in the middle of july.

It's because it's for kids that the train design needs to be a bit more involved, as I doubt many of them like the classic rough woodie feel, even at 15 mph.
