Title: Bachmann Large Scale 4-6-0 stall current
Post by: Grapevine Flyer on July 04, 2016, 04:15:13 PM
Does anyone know the approximate stall current of a Bachmann Large Scale 4-6-0?

If you have a multimeter, here is an article on how to determine it:

12 volts DC power to the track is used for N or HO scale stall motor test.
 
16 volts DC is used for large scale locomotive stall motor test.

A Bachmann Big Haulers 4-6-0 locomotive (2006 production) stall motor draw is 1.9 amps at 16 volts.
