New GeoTrax Cement Mixer Truck

When I received my Lift N' Load Quarry in the mail, I noticed on the back of the packaging that there appeared to be one more GeoTrax new release that wasn't being talked about yet. It is a new Cement Mixer Truck.



This appears similar to the garbage truck, police car and ambulance released earlier this year. A push vehicle that makes different cement mixer truck sounds at the push of a button. I have only seen these for sale on eBay so far.

GeoTrax Track Layout Ideas - Part II

Another great source for GeoTrax track layout ideas comes from an eBay user (e-store-24) who has created some well-designed track layout manuals.

Only on eBay - One-of-a-kind GeoTrax Track Layout Manuals
     o Vol. 3 - Elevation Track Layouts
     o Vol. 4 - Table Top Layouts
     o Vol. 5 - Workin' Town Layouts

The track layout manuals can be purchased on eBay for $9.99 + $2.50 shipping. These track layouts have been designed using professional CAD graphical software. Look at the detail...

It appears a total of 5 track layout manuals have been created to date. Vols. 3, 4 and 5 are actively being sold on eBay.

Here is a little bit more about these manuals...

Volume 3 focuses on the elevation series of GeoTrax sets and includes 16 different track layouts. The layouts have been well thought out so that the trains can run in both directions and won't get stuck in a loop. Track layouts are also large enough to get 3, 4 and even 5 trains running at the same time.

Volume 4 accomplishes the goal of creating space-efficient layouts designed for table top (or floor) assembly. Parents can appreciate track layouts that don't occupy floor space throughout the entire house. Learn to assemble feature rich layouts in compact spaces--manual includes 16 new layouts.

Volume 5 is geared towards building layouts with the Workin' Town Railway set plus a minimal amount of additional sets.

All layout manuals include a table that shows a list of all layouts and the sets required when assembling the layout. Here is an example from Vol. 5.

Two new remotes are being released a Bulldozer and a Dump Truck. Even more exciting is the fact that they now come with a reverse direction option. That's right, using your remote you can make them go forward AND backwards. Check out the new remote style.

These look like fun, the dump truck even has real dumping action. Here are some pictures from the Instruction sheets.
