Easy on the caps. Use of the caps lock in the internet is the same as "Screaming" in real life. <br /> <br />I personally put engines that are alike together. Usually the slow engine goes into the pusher of the fast unit. Saves the couplers. The slack action resulting from slow unit first and the fast unit shoving on it will destroy couplers in short order. <br /> <br />Think of different engines like a 4-8-2 Mountain being assisted by a 4-6-0 Picture a Father and child pulling the log up hill. The combined effort on the log is enough to move it. <br /> <br />This is for DC operation only. DCC introduces a whole different scenarios. I tend to use too many words and confuse issue, so I defer DCC to experts. <br /> <br />Good Luck <br /> <br />Lee
