Reply to "The 783 Hudson! Puller or slug?"

I do not have 783, but I do have the 704 Santa Fe Warhorse Hudson. The main difference between the 783 and the 704 is that the 783 has bar magnetraction whereas the 704 has axle magnetraction very similar to that of diesels.  As mentioned earlier, one the things to keep in mind is that the 773-styled Hudson locomotives have 20v motors in them compared. It took 80 hours for my Hudson to break in. Now it will coast 4 feet in an "emergency stop". It will also, with some minor slipping, pull the 6 aluminium cars from the Santa Fe anniversary set with ease; even with just 18v to the track.
