Running All of My Ho Steam Locomotives - Part 1

  • After receiving many requests I decided to do an update to my previous video "Running all my Ho steam locomotives" from 2018. As it would turn out not every one of these engines ran perfectly but I still ran what I could. Since I ended up taking over 40 minutes of footage I decided to split this video into two parts. The second should be on its way soon.

    Hey Harrison, congrats on hitting 16K subs! @12:51 the Bachmann New Haven loco is supposed to run on DC as well. It should even have a smoke unit. You may need to remove the DCC chip or put in a jumper. Mark (M&M Rails) has an Atlas that is both DCC and DC which required manually switching it to one or the other.

    that boiler on that "brass" engine isnt brass either. its a one for one copy of an MDC Roundhouse ATSF 4-4-2. They reused the 4-4-2 boiler on their 2-6-2 chassis, making an oddball. You can see the piping is all molded on. Its just painted much better, probably spray can, whereas everything else is likely brush painted.

  • @TeroquNoir
    @TeroquNoir 3 роки тому +2

    The reason some of them weren't working properly is because with older models you need to warm it up by helping it do laps around the track. Older used trains aren't made to be used at the same speed all the time, but kids never read the manual and love using it on full speed every time. Then, by the time you get it, it will always have starting issues and a much lower life expectancy. Once you help the train around the track it will eventually get used to the rails and will run at least 3/4 smoothly. You WILL have to do this every time you pull it out again unfortunately.

    • @SMTMainline
      @SMTMainline  3 роки тому +2

      Do you have any explanation by why letting them warm up helps? I've heard a lot of people make this claim but I can't seem to wrap my head around why it would do anything other then the commutator clearing off from fiction. DC motors work best at a fairly high RPM which is why I usually run them fast.

    • @TeroquNoir
      @TeroquNoir 3 роки тому

      I was hoping you'd ask. Electric motors require friction to run, but first they have to get warm hence the friction. That's why the ol' brush motors use brushes to brush against the motor. As for the tracks and wheels, when they're warmer they do conduct better as the widely spread molecules of warm metal conduct easier than tightly clustered molecules of cold metal.

    • @TeroquNoir
      @TeroquNoir 3 роки тому

      While they don't seem cold, they're cold enough to matter. And because they're small they get cold fast.
