A couple questions, related to the Yard Boss set I bought for my son a couple months ago:
1. What kind of couplers does this have? I've done some googling, but to my surprise, I still can't figure it out.
2. I purchase the Bachmann 16-pier set and some extra track to add to the 24" circle to make an under/over figure 8. However, with more than one car attached to the engine, the engine slips on th incline. Even spreading the piers out so they are a couple track legths from each other (so that there are only 2 or 3 track segments with no pier, it still slips. Even adding a 4 straights and not using the tallest pier, it still slips a litle with 3 cars attached. Am I expecting too much (the box made it seem as if it was meant for basic figure 8s)?
Thanks!!
