It is more expensive but I have tried all the DC and AC pre-ballasted track and the Piko A Track is simply fantastic. A rubbery plastic for the roadbed was genius and love the detail.

When 4014 is "working" at pulling a normal load, which consumable is used faster, the water or the fuel? I'm wondering in, say, gallons per hour average.Just silly monkey curiosity.

These videos are always enjoyable. A couple of ideas. 1/ Tiny bits from those fibre-glass brushes can finish up in eyes, probably rubbed in from the fingers (one of the reasons for safety glasses/shields is to keep the fingers OUT). The possibility of corneal scratches comes to mind. I have been trying to find for you a letter in a recent 'Model Railway Journal' but could not find it. The author relates having several fragments medically removed. Better to find another way. 2/ I have always thought there are two design faults with the 30xx and 31xx models, the rear motor bearing is not replaceable as it is on some 33xx models, and the wire coming off the windings and going to the brushes is not anchored to the motor frame. This means that when removing and manipulating the stator, the wire is flexed, and can fatigue and break. I have a 3068 (Danish NOHAB GM AA16C) with a broken wire. Finding spare part stators for these things is not always easy. With some of my models I have tapped an 8BA insulated screw into the motor casting and terminated the winding wires to it. It is insulated, remember. A length of Faller flexible wire carries the current from there to the brushes, and takes most of the flexing - easily most of the flexing. If it breaks it is easy to replace; if the stator wires break you have a real problem. If you do this modification use a generously sized tapping drill so as to not stress and break the tap. Removing a broken tap from Mazac/Zamac is hard. When run, the old motors wear brushes and need cleaning, so motor disassembly is needed. There is a digitising kit available for many of these locos; and that includes a new (permanent magnet) stator. See Marklin of Sweden kzbin.info/www/bejne/amS9nYWVjNqHqLM Worth the considerable research required. Thanks for your video, hope this adds to it all.

Well now, isn't this interesting. Here is the Big Boy, with a Diesel Engine, "Helper"? Maybe the electronics package installed into the tender, failed or malfunctioned. Or is it because even with the added cars. The Big Boy needs help braking. Or perhaps a bit of a push up some hills? I know when it left Cheyenne back on June 30th, there was no Diesel engine, because I watched it go out, and took a video of it. Very odd, that the Diesel engine if back.

I wish they could put the diesel at the rear of the train and use it like a DPU if they needed dynamic braking. It might take some doing to rig the Big Boy as the control unit, but I would think it reasonably possible.
@J3scribe 4 ай бұрын
I'm sure if you funded it, they would consider it. haha I think they should place traction motors on the first, second and last axles of the tender, if possible. Electricity could be supplied from a power car, via MU, behind the water tenders. I'm sure they could figure out how/where to incorp[orate the DB system. But again, $$$$$

No - no on the electrical power. Freight engines are not set up to make 480 Volt 3 phase power. Besides, the Boiler-Dorm car has a Cat generator running in it, to power the three Steam Crew cars... A diesel will most likely appear now behind 4014 when traveling down the more steeply decending grades like Weber Canyon and Donner.
