@rml695 Are you using the "hook and loop" couplers, or the more realistic knuckle couplers?

How can you manage to get your trains to haul that much? I run mine at about the same speed yours is (maybe a little faster) and this is on a sort of "round square" layout that just goes around and around, and i've only been able to get it to haul two cars - a box car and a caboose. The couplings on the diesel engine are gone but the steam engine, which is what i'm referring to here with the car situation, is running fine, and it can only haul maybe two cars max without derailing.

Cmos 4017 IC could do that.
