Haulage capacity of 2.5" gauge locos   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #556 of 1146 |
Hi there All,

Can someone give me an idea how much a loco such as a 2.5" gauge Dyak or
Fayette would haul (preferably in stone or kg)?

I know how much people say they will haul in the articles about well built
loco's, but how much will Joe Average's loco haul?

Also, I've seen a lot of articles that were written back in the 1930's, butI'm
suspecting that the everyone weighed nearer the 10 stone mark in those days,
whereas I tip the scales at 'in excess of the modern ideal
male weight of 11 stone'.

Yours,


Rich.
