Here is a link I pinched from the plarail FB page, the most unreal tower of plarail track I have ever seen.

Amazing! That's just....... AMAZING!

I do not have that much credit in the my credit card!!

RM100,000 = $32K usd

Jealous! LOL

How cool but after viewing the site, how disappointing. Only one picture of the layout and no video? Maybe Panasonic is not a leader in technology if they didn't hire a videographer and photographer. I would really like to see a whole album of pictures from this layout. It also begs the question...did they alter the Shinkansens motor to draw less power or something and did they take a pack of batteries of the rack of the nearest store or use something specially configured at the factory. Not that I don't think this was all cool but just the strain of going that high and an Alkaline battery for that distance.....I want to see more.

Thanks Ucwepn.

Wish I had 100,000 or whatever bucks to build one. That would be awsome ! I miss those old stackable gurders Tomy Thomas offered. You just can't get it with trackmaster anymore.

Super, some pictures floating around shows a videographer by the structure, so I am sure we will see a vid soon

Thank you, I look forward to seeing more. I see distance counter on the left and a clock timer on the right so it looks like they just started.

does anyone have personal experience with this battery? tempted to buy a few packs for the next show, try and make things a bit more streamlined and not having to change batteries all the darn time.

the whole thing is amazing. goes to show what a big pull plarail has over there.

I have not tried this battery but i do use Sanyo's Eneloop rechargeable batteries. Also purchased a 16 battery charger and double AA conversion case for C batteries. So all of my locomotives now run on just AA batteries.

Wouldn't it be better to use rechargeables for your shows to save on money?
