Does anyone realy run DPU Trains on their layout? Do they realy work? How well do work? Do they run fairly well with a very long Train? I would like to see your DPU Trains. Allan.

I run DPU trains on the club layout, 2 BNSF Kato AC4400s on the front and one on the back, and it works great. If you have sharper curves, I think it doesn't work as well. I also run 2 unit sets of helpers on my layout, 2 SD40s in addition to what's on the head end.
