Hi Folks,
I'm recently new to model railways after a long break...
I'm currently having a layout built for me and it appears that one or two of the gradients could be quite challenging. The era I am modelling (in 00) is LMS / BR late 1930's to early 1960's. I'm interested in both steamnd diesel locos. I was wondering if any members could give me an idea of loco's, in their experience that have reasonable 'pulling power'. From what I have heard this can vary from type / model / maker. I know this is a long shot but I thought I would ask. I'm using DCC.
Many thanks in anticipation.
Rod
