We have a flat spot on a wheel of our MILW 760 [F-M H-10-44) at the Illinois Railway Museum. I haven't ridden it with the flat spot, but the engineer who operated it on our main line for our "Diesel Days" parade of locomotives said it was pretty bumpy at 20-30mph. The engineers seat has a pretty good cushion, so the flat spot didn't shake his fillings loose. <br /> <br />We used this locomotive for a lot of switching duties last year, but we've used it very little since it was flat-spotted. The spot is close to, but less than 1 1/2". <br /> <br />Rich Witt <br />IRM Diesel Dept <br />
