I've, thus far, only had one SNAFU...while the locomotive with its modifications (pics later this week) takes switches well (much more than I thought) it did run a ground over an overly heavy ballasted track. I had to bru***he ballast away and then it ran fine. Here are some concerns I have with it... 1) The Battery box is unproportionally heavy than the locomotive itself. I don't know exactally how to solve it, but I may have to add weight to the locomotive itself to improve traction. 2) It has several "traction tires" that may ruin on hot Aristocraft track. So far I run in in the Two Tress, Texas Area (thus the shade from the namesake) I imagine when th eline pushes to open country it may cause a problem. 3) I've got some hooks (Bachmann Couplers) coming in , I'm going to work some magic to convert them to Bachmann. I think it will pull two passenger coaches, or two boxcars or up to four flat cars if conditions are correct. 4) I would like to buy another of these engines, but I cannot find them in stores. They are wonderful vessels on which to practice my kitbashing skills without fear of disaster!!! Does anyone know from whence I might get another set (but one that is remote controlled)?
