Paragon2 Y6b 2191 with 100 cars on the AMRS Layout

[rcp1936]

I have one and they do weigh a lot

That is one reason they can get traction

That was just a experiment ,with the heavy diecast boiler and traction tires she probably will pull 100-125 cars but keep in mind with traction tires they'll be unable to slip their drivers when the load gets too great causing damage to the drive system.

Go Easy !

How many cars do you recon a pair of them could pull? My friend and i are building a ho one each. Double headding Y6Bs!! : )

@fodenscania2 triple header would probably pull more than that. put wo in the front one in the rear :D.i'll try it because their is a coal train down at the model rr club thats loaded with actual coal so their not weighted the same and my trix bigboy (can and have pulled 120+ cars) is only able to pull out the slack in the couplers and then it just sits there with the wheels spinning. i wonder if triple headed y6b's will get it goin lol
