It is sometime since my running the older locomotives in my collection - finding that the controller's settings are much higher while running the older Fleischmann "Greyhound" Warship model. With this model the controllers setting is double that of Bachmann's new 108 DMU.
Perhaps reason is that the Fleischmann Warship is not fitted with "flywheels" and motor in this model being a "Pancake", which incidentally Fleischmann to this day use the "Pancake" motor i.e. the 614 three coach DMU.
It is a fact, that model locomotives "Steam" or "diesel" that are stored for long periods, should be occasionally be brought out and run for at least thirty minutes.
