i dont think you would get the push pull effect, the reason it does it with cars is because they are on wheels, i dont think a massive stone would jump forward as it started to move, it would just eventually start moving.

though im probably wrong as ive never tryed to pull a rock.


You don't need wheels for this effect. Dragging just about anything that has weight will give you the same result. A stone on a sledge will be slowed by varying ground conditions a ripple will run down the team of Oxen. The longer the Train the worse the effect..
