Since I have a liking for Speeders and little powered machines on rails, AND I have an overabundance of Gremlins in my driveway, I got to doodling in MSPaint this morning. Wonder what a Gremlin Speeder might look like? Here's my depiction of what one might shape up to be like.



Not sure of the track of the Gremlin, would have to measure to see if rail wheels could be mounted to the current axles, or whether a custom unit would be required. Anyway, an interesting look to it. I was going to cut it in half, and mount the body backwards, so the rear hatch would become the windshield, but decided to go "stock" for my first attempt. LOL. Hope it provides a couple of laughs and smiles today.
