A really good idea just dawned on me. I could take out the small airhill and everything after it, and rebuild the rest of the coaster. That would be really good, partly because I wouldn't cancel, but also because I could also make the layout a lot better this time.

I know exactly how that feels. You build something, it makes it fine, next day you build something else, it makes it, then the next day, all of a sudden, fail...

If you haven't tried this yet, make a track segment about twice the length of the train. Put the train on the track and hold the track vertical. Hold the train and track about 6 inches from a room heater (wheels toward the heater) and run the track up and down a bunch of times through the train. After a couple minutes, whip the track through the train and give it a go through the circuit. It produced fabulous results for me.

I think you might have to much lube on your trains. Is the tubing wet? if it is then keep on running your cars through the track and every once in as while wipe of the track with a towel.

next time this happens you should lower the humidity, if you can. Maybe that helps.

I say just put it somewhere, and focus on the coaster. DO NOT do a rosebowl or loop. That is what everyone is doing. Just simply do like a banked drop under the supports, and then just go from there....

I am pretty sure that he canceled this. He announced it in chat last night.
