I too would like to see how you made the crane magnet operational.

I sent you a pm but I have a feeling it did not get through to you for some reason.

Here is how I added an electromagnet to the overhead crane.  I removed the electromagnet from a Lionel 6019 uncoupling track.  Underneath the crane base I attached a 2 cell AAA battery box.  A miniature toggle switch and LED was added to the roof of the crane cab.
