I have a couple of British steamers that are designed to run on 12 volts but these long legged beauties just don't look right crawling around at a scale 100-120 kliks. The addition of a few extra volts will add the necessary realism. <br /> <br />As I child I put 24 volts through my Tri-ang 4-6-2T and achieved a respectable distance jump. It survived this abuse for many years. I have also overun an electric 8mm camera by quadrupling the voltage and got some terrible slow motion footage. I also doubled the top speed on my BSA bantam fitted a huge rack of carburettors on my 850 Mini and am currently running several horribly overclocked computers. <br /> <br /> Perhaps you shouldn't be taking advice from me, I may be a hooligan. <br /> <br />I hope you are getting track and points to go with this train as you will have to do some work to use it on H0 track due to the excessive wheel flange size.
