Box Car Cam - Part 3Here are some still pictures
from my BoxCar Cam experiment.
I had to cut a slot in the floor of this tall box
car so the battery compartment would fit.
One could make or buy a different configuration that
would fit in better. It has a circuit board between the main circiut board
and the batteries. The batteries only lasts about 4 hours so you
want it to be easy to swap the batteries, or use some sort of manipulated
track power. Maybe one of our EEs can help me with that one.
The battery compartment extends below the floor.
