The D10 sound file is being custom done with ESU. Not sure what they're using for the base sounds.

Can you do the same but without traction tires? PS, not really a 10-wheeler, as there's only 3 powered axles! Any chance, of a decapod being made by Rapido Trains? Cheers!
@milesduggan73452 жыл бұрын
It has too do with two wheels on one Axel. Hence 4'6'0 4 leading 6 driving 10 wheels.
@jkleylein2 жыл бұрын
The 4-6-0 wheel configuration has always been traditionally called 'ten-wheeler' in North America.

We may do another video without the traction tires in the future, possibly once the production models arrive.
@bobkaplan70542 жыл бұрын
Thank ya" i would appreciate the test done w/o the traction tire. Since it will be shipped without the tire mounted, i would like to see how it would perform when i open the box. I have a way of jinxing a model once i remove a screw, and thus if it performs pretty well, i will not open her up to exchange the axle/tire.

Can you make a video on how to install traction tires please. I would like one.
@shanestrains47242 жыл бұрын
But....how does it pull without the traction tires? I'm wondering how it will perform on my Slocan transfer slip/car float set up. I have a 2 percent grade to the slip, with an slight angle up the transfer slip, onto the apron and then the car float. So far all my other switcher engines handle it well (P2K 0-8-0's and Gp9's). The 0-8-0's have a bit of play in the wheels which allows them to follow the rail. So I'm curious as to how the D10 will perform. Either way, I'm looking forward to when they finally ship out. 👍

Chuff rate seems a bit fast, does the rate vary using back EMF or is there a cam?
@rapidotrains2 жыл бұрын
The chuff rate will be corrected on the production models. This feature is controlled with a hall sensor and magnet mounted on the flywheel.

So...at 2:31 of the last video, Bill dismissed the idea of traction tires, but for this video they had to be put back on? Why would they have been such a no-no in the first place?
@rapidotrains2 жыл бұрын
The factory put traction tires on the sample, but the production model will have them in the box for optional installation.

What is it with traction tyres in North America on steam? Do it again without.

Some modellers like traction tires, others don't so we offer both options. We'll likely do another video at some point in the future as well.

I can't wait to pick up my reserved 1057 and then have it sitting in a box for 50 years with the hopes of a layout that will never happen. By then Holographic virtual trains will render plastic obsolete and my body will be chronologically frozen until the year 3150. I'll then open the box and get to marvel at my 1057 once more.
