Model Power HO ALCO RS-2 review

Thanks for another great review - it looks like the same drive as their C430. I bought one of those planning to convert it to a dummy but it runs rather well after a few hours on the test track so it'll probably get a detail job (mainly filling in the pilots and fitting proper coupler boxs), a repaint, and a decoder. They're not too shabby for £20! <br /> <br />Edit: one suggestion that might be of use. I discovered that by putting a drop of oil on each motor and worm bearing and a dab of grease in the trucks it improved the slow speed operation noticably. Mine had no grease or oil in it from new.
