Hi again,

By my estimates the DRG 44 pulled 3.5 times what the prototypes pull however they aren't loaded put some scale sized loads of metal in the wagons and see how they pull,
I reckon it may be close to the prototype and put them on a 1.5% grade

Still they are impressive.

13 cm x 300 wagons = 3.900 cm total length of the wagonsBigGrin

3.900 cm / 28 cm = 139,29 times longer than the loco BigGrin

56 gr x 300 wagons = 16.800 gr total weight of the wagonsBigGrin

16.800 gr / 709 = 23,70 times heavier than the locoBigGrin

You'd need to find some way of measuring the pullbar strength and then multiply that by 87 to give you the models tractive effort but generally they out pull the prototypes a
single 44 would not be able to pull 100 wagons on it's own I don't think but the American Big Boy could on a level track.

Hi Evan,

This is what you can find from Guiness....

FOR THE RECORD
WHO:
WILMINGTON RAILROAD MUSEUM MODEL RAILROAD COMMITTEE
WHAT:
LONGEST MODEL TRAIN
WHERE:
UNITED STATES
WHEN:
23 APR 2011

The longest model train measured 282.11 m (925 ft 6 in) and was made up of 31 locomotives and 1,563 carriages. It was constructed by the Wilmington Railroad Museum Model Railroad Committee (USA) and was presented and measured in Wilmington, North Carolina, USA, on 23 April 2011


If I had 31 DB 44s , I can not even imagine the number....Woot

Cheers,
