[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by locomotive3 bangert1. Then you can you answer the wheel slippage concern. Do you or do you not have traction tires? [/quote] The trix I have does not have traction tires, but will handle 40 cars on the 2% grade if the cars roll easily. However, Kadee cars do not roll well and a helper must added if all of the train is made up of Kadee cars. I believe additional weight could be added to the engine if extra draw bar pull is needed as I removed the boiler and looked at the drive system.
