QUOTE (harkins77 @ 5 Sep 2008, 20:34) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>If you ever had a playstation they had a rumble system in the controllers that gave the effect of say going on the grass or gravel when you use it on a driving game. I think the idea is based on something spinning in the handle on a spindle. But with the layout being in N gauge it is going to be very hard to get the desired vibration to pass through to the wagon.
the other way would be to get a small motor and imbalance the shaft and put some weight on 1 side to make it vibrate.
The easiest way to create something shaking is to use a speaker with AC power. The ac power will make the speaker move at 50Hz (240v mains frequency). By adding mass to the moving part of the speaker it will make the object it is attached more likely to move.
Another very simple method is if you have a home AV system with a subwoofer or a pair of speakers which produce decent bass and placed one of these on your baseboard and played some bass heavy music, this will cause vibrations across the baseboard
