the BLI A-class mallet will haul 170+ loaded cars on the level, would assume it would be capable of hauling 100 cars up a 2% grade without much need for assistance. <br /> <br />I have a Mantua Heavy Mountain and it has no prblem hauling the longest trains we can strring together at my club (about 40-50 cars) although it slows down slightly going around our 30" radius bends. With a pair (another club member has an identical engine) they are more than capable of hualing the train at high speed around the layout.
