Doesn't the various flexible wire links you have tried cause problems when the Motor Car is propelling the set?

There is no problem reversing. I stopped the DMU at the end of the scenic part of the layout and put it into reverse at a reasonable speed. It travelled the whole of the scenic part, i.e. three long straights and two 180 degree curves of 24" radius, with no problem.

Thats good, I wanted to know to save me having problems on my end to end layout if I did the same thing! Otherwise it was a case of installing Keen Systems Close Couplers.
