looks like these new r/c chassis can be only applied to bullet trains and no mention of freight trains. the R/C set is certainy a lot easier to operate than Mr. Motorman but you can't use the remote to control more than one train at any given time

Hi Leyland
According to the description on a well known web page

Quote: If you have two Grip Mascon series vehicles, you can run them separately by switching bands A and B.

Are these a smaller version of our normal Plarails and not motorized like this?

To be honest, I have absolutely no idea Big Grin

i am going to say yes. I say the size is between the regular plarail trains and the capsule units.

Happy Plarail Day for October 14! Is there anything being made to celebrate it?

Ha...wasn't even aware it was Plarail Day. 😒 I know we have probably talked about this day in the past but what would the significance of Oct 14th be?
