Here the train has successfully engaged the chain and is heading up the steep hill. It takes about 2 minutes to get to the top. It is critical that the yellow plates fall between the train cars and not under them, where they bind and cause chain breakage. You can see the return chain floating behind the yellow support beams here. The power wire to the motors for the hill (which are mounted at the top of the hill) is visible just below the level of the track. In the middle of each track section is a technic gear which the chain rides on. The chain also rides on two rails of stud-down plates for the length of the hill.
