I pull between 30 to 60 cars up a 5 to 7% grade. If I'm not using an articulated or my FEF then I'm double or triple heading with what ever, no MU just three engines in line that run and perform at comparable but not exact speeds. This works providing they are running clean and steady. You need a good power pack for this as the little rinky dink ones don't have enough juice. <br /> <br />As to your 2-6-0 problem youv'e got a Mehano from Slovenia. I've got two, witha little bit of detail work they can be sharp lookers, However they will never be able to pull much, regardless of your efforts. Keep them on a spur line and engine and haul that one or two carloads into the backwash places after all that's what they did best.
