Hi bmcecosse Loco is not modified in any way, not even a resent re-mag or lube. Max loading is 0.6 amps (continous) but they will take more for short spells. With 30 coaches I measured upto 1.1 amps but the loco was still pulling fine. Regards Ron HRCA 7180
Hi Ron - name here is Roy HRCA 3338 - I had my LNER tank pulling 20 at speed last night with ease, no extra weight, but it does have a Super Neo magnet! Your hump shunting is magnificent - well done.
Risking a hot box there Ron with that 'streamlining' on the Montrose. Was it a 5 pole armature I wonder ? HRCA 3338
