Marklin made a humping hill signal many years ago. It is a three position signal with an arm that indicates to the loko driver how fast they are to go as they push the car over the hump. I'm thinking more of a hill with the uncoupler on the up side. Pre-uncouple the car as you go up and run at the speed indicated by the signal. The car will roll free once you crest the hump. https://www.marklin-user...s&t=17984#post269218
		Matt Era 3 DB lokos, coaches and freight cars from across Europe But I do have the obligatory (six) SBB Krocs ECoS 50200, all FX and MFX decoders replaced with ESU V4s, operated in DCC-RailCom+ with ABC brake control. With the exception of the passenger wagens with Marklin current conducting couplers, all close couplers have been replaced with Roco 40397.
