very steady hands you have there. I would like to see you fit a Dcc sound decoder and speaker in there, that would be a challenge he he he

Att ta isär ett lok är inte svårt, det är värre att sätta ihop det igen.

Oh, you just poke buttons on the end, just like a real locomotive! ;)

I think with the early diesels they used rods to transfer motive power across the drive wheels... presumably before they figured out how to run drive to multiple axles using gearboxes.

What a fantastic video - I wish there were more like it here. I just got my first Marklin Z set (81560, with the 8803 BR24 steam loco) and I've already had that half apart to clean and relube as the forward performance was lousy out of the box... after 3 days of near constant running in it's a bit better now but won't creep forwards below 60 on the Marklin controller. Apparently a lot of the new Marklin locos suffer from an armature alignment issue.

I used to have HO, but this is interesting material nonetheless.

its got main rod things from wheel to wheel like a steamer but it looks like a deisel- is that how euro power transfers tractive force from wheel to wheel on little 060 deisels ?
