<P>Thats an impressive bit of hardware - 100 car train sounds good - Lets see USA trains are currently $63.89 for a 70 ton hopper .... Soooo thats $6389 dollars - plus a bit of dry transfer to renumber them.. Each one is 17 inches long so thats 141 feet long - hmmmm It sounds good but i reckon you might need to start a wee bit smaller .I would love to see some pictures of it pulling 15 or so cars tho- should look great. My reference tractive effoert table suggests that 100 might be a wee bit optomistic</P> <P><A href="http://www.girr.org/girr/tips/tips4/tractive_effort_tests.html">http://www.girr.org/girr/tips/tips4/tractive_effort_tests.html</A></P>
