I haven't done it, but one of the other operators at my club ran 67 hoppers at once. This is an N-scale layout (quite large at 10.6 scale miles). Most of his cars had knuckle couplers, but he had a "conversion" car somewhere in the consist to allow him to add his other cars that had Rapido couplers. He could haul them most of the way around the layout, but once he got to the semi-helix, the Rapidos gave out. <br /> <br />I'd like to say he did this with a single loco, but he used 5 Atlas GP9s to do it.
