It seems that Faller doesn't push the system in North America, maybe because most of the vehicles are German. There are some items listed in the Walthers 2012 HO catalog, which means they should be easy to order. There was an article in MR about an editor adding a bus route some time ago, but even that didn't seem to generate more interest.

I did not see any info on the Faller cars at the NMRA convention or National Train Show in Sacramento. Maybe it was there and I overlooked it. The wonderful HO modular club from Canada had some Faller vehicles in operation. I think these guys had some electronic wizards in their group. I have wondered why there has not been more promotion in the U.S. market. - Earl Henry, Nashville In a message dated 11/29/2011 2:36:11 P.M.

I would think the easiest way would be to adapt the HO mechanism to an S scale vehicle. If you notice, they run the vehicles so much that the tires leave rubber marks on the pavement.
