I heard you mention you couldn’t run two locos at once. Did you mean you couldn’t get a double header to work?

[@HumanityKILLS]

You could with 2 ppl. When RROX used to work, I could link them together, but no more. I think they will make this a feature eventually.

[@floridaman4073]

I do it, no RROX. Typically for climbing a long grade with 30+ cars. I have a 125 leading the way, a tweetsie as second engine. I set up the tweetsie facing rear so the coal tenders meet. Since I personally do it dragging lumber to the coal and iron mines I have to put a large hopper car as the first car because there is a problem with front couplers connecting to flat cars and then run my flat cars behind the hopper. I set the tweetsie at 60% with max fuel and hop back in the 125, kick off the brakes and use the front loco to brake and increase speed.

Yea that works if you have a nice even grade. I've done it before also, but depending on the track it can be a real headache that usually ends up in derailment. The 125 has plenty of power for most jobs.

@@HumanityKILLS agree, don’t go over 3% but like pulling long trains
