Can anyone tell me if and how to utilize the operating mechanism with fast track. I also have the operating milk and cattle cars. Just can't seem to figure out how to use with the new fast track...thanks #Post#: 522-------------------------------------------------- Re: Using giraffe car operating mechanism on fast track By: campda03 Date: January 22, 2014, 9:21 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I have seen a giraffe car used with fast track by bending a piece of metal wire (around 1/16" round) and securing it into a set of holes drilled into the plastic roadbed. It was easily put into place and removed so it could be taken off when not using the car. Hope this helps. *****************************************************
