Boy, I dodged a bullet on that one!
@prrhorseshoecurve posted:BTW, HAs anyone attempted to add Ball Bearings to the coach cars for lesser resistance?
I think that would be a major task and require extensive mechanical modifications.
In any case, if you really want to reduce the rolling resistance of the Aerotrain cars, there's a much simpler way. Just run a one-wire tether between the cars for track power and remove the center track rollers from most of the cars. The difference is astounding, about 50% of the rolling resistance is the center track rollers. I did that for one customer for the four car set and just ran everything from the engine power.
