I've removed the pick up skates, but how do you stop the wheels from picking up power too? There doesnt seem to be any wires connecting it?
And i can't work out why each motor wont pick up off the track on it's own, only when the motors are connected to eachother will it run of track power.
If the loco has rubber tires are they on opposing sides of each bogie cos it may pick up power from one rail on each bogie meaning when you connect both boggie together its completes the ciruit
