Hi,
I am wanting to set up speed tables for a number of locos and am wondering whether anyone has (or knows of) a list of settings they have used succesfully for different classes of locomotive
eg - Rebuilt West Country, Rebuilt Merchant Navy, King Arthur, M7
Black 5,
Alternatively has anyone any suggestions as to the equivalent "speed in m.p.h." for given settings/power output.
i.e. 255 is maximum power available, but what settings are equivalent to
speeds of 100 m.p.h, 90 m.p.h, 75 m.p.h. etc.
Or do I assume that for an express passenger locomotive a setting of 210 is equivalent to 125 m.p.h. and work backwards.
Regards
Ian 47
Ps - I will probably post this enquiry on some other DCC forums
