Or hitching a real live firebreathing steam engine weighing several hundred ton to a 10 car heavy weight passenger consist. All of that has mass, weight and needs room to run. <br /> <br />Once you get it going down the rail at 50 mph you are going to have a great deal of rolling mass on your hands. Dont spill the beverages in that diner now or wake the sleepers. <br /> <br />Hard to do with a HO scale T-1 and 10 1 foot long heavyweight models plus head end freight taking up about 15 feet of track. Especially if that track ends in a sharp curve 2 feet from a wall that is higher than the washington monument in DC. <br /> <br />Many of the others have said thier peice in this thread. I point to my Tech DC throttle power pack and say I got momentium, brakes and power. Or to the DCC and say this engine will move while that engine sleeps at the water tower. <br /> <br />I am intrigued by the computer control stand. Anyone have a direct link to the product itself?
