Many times you can do a little PM on these to give you better low speed performance. Proper lube and insuring there is no binding of any kind in the drive train makes a big difference in low speed performance, that applies to both MTH and Legacy. I have a couple of MTH locomotives that are problematic at low speeds, but most smooth out by 2-3 scale MPH. You should be able to improve the performance with a little mechanical PM and perhaps some lube.
