Guys, if you think the Mikes and Pacifics run well then you haven't seen what a modern HO engine runs like. I don't mean that to come off wrong but Those two have horrible low speed performance. Their min speed is like 15 scale mph. Check out my YouTube channel and watch the video of my MTH HO Mikado going at 1 scale mph. If you can get a Flyonel Mike to do that I'll eat my hat. And yes I ran them on TMCC, lubed them, and broke them in four hours.
The Hudson would need to be a good slow speed operator for me to keep it. Obviously, we won't know before we would have to pre-order which is risky to me but I'd give it a try.
