Testing gradients on my On30 study layout prior to laying track. The gradient as shown is 3.5% a little steeper than I need so I thought i'd try one of my Forney's
up the gradient as test. I will comfortably pull the six cars shown up the gradient from a standing start on the middle of the gradient on a throttle setting of 1
or in non DCC terms super slow crawl. The radius is 24", even more impressive. I'm delighted !
