I used to be indecisive - now I'm not - I don't think.

Don't think it would go round a 2nd radius curve too well  :o
Mechanical issues can be solved with a hammer and electrical problems can be solved with a screw driver. Beyond that it's verbal abuse which makes trains work!!

Interesting idea for a show layout, but the organizers might get a bit worried about the launch flames. :D
