@deejayy2k I used a 3xAAA holder from one of those cheap LED flashlights, it only half fits in the tender but works very well. experimental at this stage.

I did a gordon today who runs on 3x AAA alkalines he goes fast but not stupid fast and doesn't drain the battery as much

I Love The Video It Can Increase My Knowledge This should work with all of the trains that take a C cell in the tender.

@GSSKTJE Thank you, I plan to have a how to for the new trackmaster James and Boco diesel up soon. Yes the battery seems to use up its juice quite fast compared to the standard C cell. I have also noticed that even though it is fast, it seems to lose its pulling power when the motor spins at high speeds. Slow and steady are key to hauling heay loads I guess.

@SEIKOHGIKEN I would think twice about modding a talking train. The circuits that make him talk may get damaged by the extra current and voltage. The only thing that is powered in the older trains is the motor.
