... and make all three drivers sets operate as one. One motor, two motor or three I dont care.Weigh it down so it can pull that slow heavy train uphill without stalling.What were they thinking? I pondered this over the stove tonight while making dinner.Do they rip a set of drawings or a picture off the internet or out of a book? Hand it to China Boss at his factory and say build me this?Wait for prototype model to arrive and announce it?Disregarding for the moment the necessary things like tractive effort, control systems and other things that are of value and a pratical necessity in our layouts?Not to mention the implied hidden feeling of having to buy into thier DCS system to gain full control of such a beast. That's what? 150-250 dollars more if you have own power supply?No.I say that there is too much thinking about money and not enough about practical things like what cars can it pull up hill, how small curves can it go ... things of that nature.Maybe I am facing the fact that I am in the wrong scale, sell off my HO stuff and get back into O scale where the only concern was where the hook the wires up at; and how many.
