Nah, not yet.
I do see Stanley telling folks on the 1:20 list his triple-header of K’s runs fine.
Doh.
Try 10 cars from a stop on 4%.
Feed throttle in, and in, and in, and in, and scratch your head (as you’ve NEVER seen an engine take so much throttle and not move), and “POW!” off it goes.
I will limit my comments on the artic to public statements by company representatives (official or unofficial, and if ONE company “official” states someone is an “employee”, as in “hired”, they become “official”, too) or video/photos released to the public by said officials.
28:1 gearboxes on the artic is where they should be.
Maybe, just maybe, the company has cut their losses and some “consultant” hasn’t been allowed to screw anything up on this one.
I do have it in print, there will be no problems, as they are handling everything in-house.
Oh, and the “new” buzz-word seems to be “Profice”.
