The use of traction tyres is, I believe, a backward step.

How do the traction wheels work and how would a more powerful motor help traction? With too much power you might end up with the problem West Country Class locos used to have slipping every time they set off with a rake of coaches. Plenty of weight I would agree with. Cheers, Phil
