Actually, LC+ lends itself to battery power very simply. I took the LC+ Camelback and in an hour I had a battery powered locomotive with full functionality, even smoke and electrocouplers. It runs for well over three hours on a charge, and is even switchable between track and battery power. It has two of the 9.6v 2000mah batteries in the tender, that's all that will fit. The charging jack is on the side, so it meets Tom's criteria of not taking it off the tracks to charge.
