  • Tired of being limited to switching and freight shuttles, Ben yearns to break free and be able to lead the "San Juan Limited" at track speed. With the right attitude and enough training, Ben believes he can do it, no problem. Or so he thinks.

    As a person who models British locomotives, not all tank engines can handle the duties mentioned by Frank. One example is the GWR 1400 class 0-4-2T as seen in 'The Titfield Thunderbolt', which was built for secondary route (branch line) passenger trains but can't perform shunting as their large driving wheels are meant for speed and in shunting or switching, you need something built for power not speed (but being Great Western, it was based off something created before, the 517 class). Another example is the LMS Fowler 3F "Jinty", which was designed for shunting but became known for also performing banking duties (pushers or helpers), suburban passenger and even small goods trains. While they top out at 60mph, I hate to be in the cab of one going at that speed, which led to them being used on slower trains. Also, compared to the 1400, the Jinty has smaller driving wheels as it needs the power to shunt trains, especially when the track's on a slope. Way to remember with British locomotives: Larger driving wheels = higher top speeds and low power, small driving wheels = lower top speeds and high power.

    What I would have said is “that’s why we don’t put you on anything fast. That’s why Nathan doesn’t pull trains over 60 mph and that’s why Annie doesn’t pull drag freights”.

    • @NMCAR2006
      @NMCAR2006 4 роки тому +1

      Nathan’s an L-4 Mohawk
      If you’re talking about the L-1’s and L-2’s, then yes, they can’t pull trains over 60 mph due to their poorly balanced reciprocating gear.
      L-3’s and L-4’s are dual service locomotives, meaning they can handle the 20th Century at 80 mph and come back comfortably with a heavy freight.

    so wait. Do they only have one switcher engine? That's kinda dumb on the "Trainmaster's" part don't you think? I mean this is coming from a guy who's a huge fan of switchers so take what I say with a grain of salt but having another switcher, like the USRA 0-6-0 slope tender switcher, would me technically, depending on the size of the san Juan, they could get the work done in half the time.
