Reply to "Measuring "Pulling Power""

We need to get you on the show with it. The PE Berk put up a pretty big number. 😂

If you remember the previous testing with Richard's track pulling power rig, my VL-BB chalked up right at 7 pounds of pulling power and was the pulling champ for any single engine.  I think I can whip the 40oz pull of the PE Berk!

John - nice video - looks like your layout is up and running.  Nice display of power - of course, those are all empties, right ...

Empties?  Not a chance, this was a revenue freight!

Now about that smoking tanker in the middle of your consist - aren't you worried that some 1:48 scale FRA inspector is gonna come banging on your door worried about the emissions and/or whether its gonna blow??

That's a LOX car, it has to have venting or it would blow.   The "venting" is pure oxygen, at least in the real world.

Now, if I had turned on the smoke on the MegaSteam car, that would be different...
