"Straying more from vectors, I remember playing a game Loooong ago that
involved a train running around a track. It got one car longer under
certain conditions, and there was someting about rerouting the tracks...
B/W raster. Anyone know what that was? Al? It was in an arcade at the
same time as Lunar Lander, Speed Freak, Football, and some others.

Exidy "Side Trak"
You get an extra car each time you make a complete loop. There is a
"killer engine" on the tracks with you that you have to avoid.
The 'vector grails' still unfound are Vectorbeam "Scramble" and Exidy "Vertigo".
Sad to say, but the board that I have that still had the eproms wasn't Vertigo;
it apparently is the last vector game ever made.. "Top Gunner" (c) 1986.
There may be a few other Atari vector prototypes (Malibu..) and Midway's
Earth, Friend, Mission.
