QUOTE: Originally posted by jeffrey-wimberly Considering that my first and last encounter with Atlas was a disaster, the first loco I got didn't run well, even on the LHS's layout and the replacement loco the company sent had a bad motor. I haven't done business with Atlas since and that was in 1984. I have to go with Kato. I've seen them run and they pull good.
