@ELMSLines Nope. Only Vision Line engines do so to my understanding. Not a deal breaker in my book.

Good engine. How many cars can it pull?

@bradstrains Thanks! Hmmmm..... I don't know I don't have a big layout to really test it but I think it can easily pull 10 + cars. The motor in this thing is very very powerful.

@Bassfanatic94 10 freight or passenger cars? Because 10 passenger cars would be OK but 10 freight is an understatement. My MTH AC4400 can pull 100+ freight cars. I think a one motor steamer like that should be-able to pull 20-30 easily. Most engines are limited by traction so motor torque isn't at question when it comes to Starting tractive effort. How much it weighs, and how many wheels are driven are the main factors. In speed motor torque is a major factor.

@bradstrains Yeah I agree with you. I really have no idea I have a small layout once I expand it a bunch I will be able to tell more how it can pull. It could probably do 20-30 if I got the room to try. This thing has 4 drive wheels and all of them have flanges. Plus this engine ways a ton too! It's really heavy!

@EPICTHOMASFAN713 hahaha I hear ya man. This hobby is great but it sucks the life out of you with cash. I paid for this engine with my OWN money. My parents helped me a little bit but I paid them back with my OWN money. I have a job now which makes saving money a whole lot easier! If you save up you can get what you want! :)
