Good Puller?

jjm - first off---->

Williams engines are great pullers, and if you check out their catalog (more like a flyer), you'll have no shortage of roadnames to choose from.

I would also consider an MTH docksider engine for your O-27 layout.  Good puller, smokes up a storm, and nice detail (but not so much that little hands can snap things off).

Good luck.

My Williams GP9 is a very strong puller.

All of the Williams engines are good pullers - the GP-9, F-3, F-7 or small Hudson.  The Berkshire is too big to make it through 027 switches.

YES>>>>>>> A GP9 would be a good 027 engine.

I really like the Williams GG-1 I bought last year.  It can pull a huge number of cars easily.  I would like to get another relatively inexpensive deisel or electric engine to pull a long consist of operating cars on a kid's layout (027).  Road name and features are not real important, but it has to be compact enough to make it through a girder bridge.  (The GG-1 is too tall with its pantograph extended.)  Any recommendations?  Should I stick with Williams?
