Has anyone installed double pickup rollers or a pickup on the engine?  It would seem like adding one to the engine would work, but then I would have another wire to worry about back to the tender.

The wire was no big deal, and it totally solved the problem as the spacing between rollers now will conquer any switch or crossover.   If you can plug the 6-pin drawbar in, the single pin wire for power should be a piece of cake.   Fooling with the rollers on something as small as that tender is likely to be marginal at solving the problem.  The fact that there's already a provision for a roller on the locomotive assures you that you'll have a trouble-free installation.
