Absolutely fantastic true craftsmanship well done.

Nice vid, but do you not have two power bogies under her?

Some yes and some no either way it all comes down to decoder set up

Here is a video I did in the past of one of my Silver Fox A Classes running on a Railroad Deltic chassis. I have no problems with slow running or pulling power.

Sorry but I can't give you an update as the guy who made them is no longer a member here.

What I want to know is, what kind of a clutch is in those giant trucks? How do you get that lot moving from standing?

If you look at Broithe's picture behind the cab you will see what looks like a large black box with a radiator and exhaust that is part of the torque converter the trucks fuel tanks are also up there as well behind the cab.

Great tutorial Eoin

Just carried out a similar test over 3m with 071 and 5 bogies.

Who mentioned anything about freight trains?

I assumed when you said 5 bogies you were talking about wagons. Didn't realise you pulled the bogies of your wagons and just coupled them on their own behind your 071.

Just carried out a similar test over 3m with 071 and 5 bogies. Using Noel's calculation figures, averaged times gave a speed of 79mph with CV5 at 255. Track voltage reading 18.25v.

If you want realistic running freight trains would be limited to 50mph not 79mph

Very nice
