Review: Lionel O gauge Trackmobile car mover
Although I purchased this little rascal for use on my home layout (http://kentstrainsblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/santas-little-helper.html), I found that it’s ideal motive power for switching CTT’s Readers’ Choice RR (featured in the Feb 2011 through Sept 2011 issues) layout extension. Love the fact that Lionel is continuing to produce clever innovations that feature TMCC, yet they aren’t in a completely unobtainable pricing tier! True story – my father saw my Trackmobile in action and asked me to find one for him ASAP! – Kent
Hi Folks,
Just an FYI…the magazine mention eludes to the current product being a new offer. Lionel had 3 other road names available before the recent release. I was given the ‘Trackmobile’ branded version as a gift some months ago. I think it’s very cool, but it will only move 1-2 cars and should have had some Legacy features. TMCC is just shaky…needs sound…but I love the detail!
