Hi List
I have a Spectrum K4 that would only pull 3 HW cars on the grades at the club layout. I took the boiler off and stuffed as much lead flashing in it at every location I could. I tried to keep the weight balaced front to rear so on end would not be heavier than the other. Now it pulls eight HW cars with out slipping.

I pray every day I break even, Cause I can really use the money!
I started with nothing and still have most of it left!
Hey Ya'll,
I am very pleased with my Spectrum 2-10-2, and I have planned to buy an undecorated Russian Decapod 2-10-0 next, possibly after christmas.
However, I have heard this engine's pulling power on grades isn't the best. Is it possible to add weight and add traction tires to the 2-10-0?
Cheese
Nick! :)
