Steam Punk - I acquired a used Weaver 4-4-4 Jubilee steamer 5 or 6 years ago. In answer to your question, 'yes' it will pull a few plastic freight cars (which I realize may not be prototypical) but I never back the engine up because reverse causes the side rods to bind abit (where they enter the steam chest) and I'm fearful this might bend the rods and cause real problems. So I err on the side of caution and don't run it in reverse (not even the engine and tender by itself), but it's a nice looking little engine steaming forward around my small layout.
