What a great find - I love that sucker!
This quote is fascinating
QUOTE Data of the build-in engines:
Faulhaber engine
2000 hours of operation, maintenance free, silent, 200 mA current consumption
... or ... Mabuchi engine
150 hours of operation, not maintenance free, more noisy, 300 mA current consumption
Someone is not fond of Mabuchi motors!
Differential prices would be very interesting and perhaps go some way to explaining why certain locos cost so much more than others but also run so much better (and for so MUCH longer) too.
