<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It has been my experience that in many cases two
identical locomotives from the same run often operate at different speeds.
Not using DCC, my solution has always been to put the faster locomotive behind
the slower. That way the faster one is slowed down by doing most of the
pulling of the train.</FONT></DIV>

I was able to run some new engines on a friend’s layout this afternoon.
For the first time I ran my new Athearn N&W SD45’s. They ran
great! I tried a new N&W P2K GP30 and the 45’s just dragged it
along. It appears to run about half speed of the Athearn's. I
didn’t have any of my older Athearn's or PPW or Atlas to compare it to.
So my question is that the P2K’s will only run with other
P2K’s?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
