I'm considering buying one of the Legacy NW2 switchers from Lionel (2016) and I was wondering about their pulling capability. I've seen videos showing examples of pulling 5 or 6 plastic body cars and wondered if it could handle a few die-cast cars or a Legacy crane/boom car okay. Does anyone have a feel for how much is too much with one of these engines? Aside from the initial quality issues I read about, these look like pretty neat yard workers. Thanks for any insight.
