N / 2-6-6-2 TT retrofit please
November 06, 2008, 12:43:27 AM
It would be nice if you would take a page from kato and come up with a traction tire retrofit for the 2-6-6-2.

Or, do another run with traction tires.

I have an old ConCor 2-8-8-0 that pulls like crazy because its heavy and has a set ot TT's on each set of drivers.

My Spectrum Connie and Lt Mtns are decent pullers because of the traction tires. The new Hvy Mtn pulls like crazy too.

The kato mike did not interest me until they came out with the TT drivers users could install.

Articulateds NEED traction tires because the weight is distributed over more points reducing the weight on each driver.

So please- TT retrofit or new release with them please.

There are many others out there like me that won't spend money on a "big" locomotive that averages pulling only 13-15 cars in most tests.
