@joshc956

@@Mrmonkey19888 They really shouldn't be using a slug to pull real weight. It's designed to spread traction, not add power. It's useful for low speed switching operations but it's the wrong thing to use here, and probably the cause of the slip. The front engine's power is cut because the slug draws from it, so they don't have as much concentrated power going into the climb to boot. I'm not sure if slugs have sanders, or if that training loco does, but if one or both lack sanders that's going to contribute, too. Essentially, 2/3 of the power sources chosen for this job aren't really made to do the job at hand.

P.S. That is how I clean my track. Either digitally by coupling some locomotives together, hooking up a train, (Might as well get some revenue.) and setting the engines for different speeds. I also do it in analog by putting five or six locomotives, some with radically different gearing, on a train and let the wheel spinners do their work. It works great, and running your fleet like that really separates the men from the boys. This only works if the "spinning" locomotive(s) do NOT have traction tires, but the other locomotives can have them. ♡ T.E.N.
