[317] Upside down train

Author: Hansjürg Jenzer, Comtex Communications AG, Muttenz, Switzerland

THE attraction at a fair - attention guaranteed!
This upside-down model railway was built by Comtex Communications AG. It was used as an effective eye catcher at a trade show. A rail with cube magnets on top of the construction pulls the railway around in a circle. The model railway has cube magnets on the bottom side of the wagons and is attached to the railway track upside-down.
Here you can see the counterpart of the model railroad, a metal rail, in more detail.
Here you can see the two cube magnets that are attached to the locomotive in greater detail.
