I am disturbed by something else.The MTH proclaims 120 speed steps in 1 scale mph incretments. (Spelling?)I am running Chief with 128 speed steps and another thought came to light.What happens if I drive a Triplex at 120 scale miles an hour? I think it will throw all it's rods, wheels and scrap itself into a junk pile.Or worse.. max out at max speed on the motor and crawl at 10 mph on the track.Im sowwy.I was not going to dive into the wording about the deliberate choice of a smoke unit versus a universal coupling but the statement tells me that manufactors as a whole dont listen to HO scale buyers of engines who actually drives these engines down the track pulling trains.I hate to think of a 500 dollar ooh and ahh mantel peice sitting in a glass case, sad and unable to pull a train. What a waste.I second the post about re-inventing engines already produced these last few years by virtually all manufactors.
