Hello

 

I am in the process of creating a larger custom coaster with many different parts from different sets.  However, I have encountered an issue.  I have created a large hill, however, the coaster cars are not making it up and over just quite.  I have purchased cars on ebay to make longer to see if it will speed it up, but unfortunately it is not working.  Does anyone know how to get a tube track coaster car that might be different from what I have currently that WILL make it over as I am seeing in many video clips that I pull up.  I know that it is possible after watching many custom built tracks and see that they are able to make it up and over with much momentum and many cars.  I would appreciate any help, as this coaster is very large and I hate for it to be at fault at this point.

 

Thank you!

Are you lubing your trains? There's several topics in this forum with guides to lubricating the wheels on your cars.

Make sure you post some pictures of your coaster, lubricating the cars is absolutely an option but the flow of your track also can make a huge difference in speed, if we have something to look at we can help you out some more.

Starting out i would recommend reading this article, and also check out this video.
