That's a really pertinent principle and a very useful article.
Enough weight and GOOD wheels on free-running axles are vitally important to trouble-free hauling. Many years ago, lack of those important requirements was one of the defining differences between the more expensive HO models and the cheaper British OO models.
Has the gap been bridged in recent years?
In an amazing coincidence, only yesterday, I just happened to lay my hands on a very neat electronic scale with interchangeable grams and ounces display, for less than £10. Perfect for the job, if ever I get around to actually checking my equipment!
