| NOTE:
The following categories are the opinion of N Scale Supply and are very subjective.
These are provided to give you a rough idea of the quality of the product. Your
mileage may vary. |
| Performance: | This
is a re-run of an earlier Atlas engine. The unit performs very smoothly. While
it will creep along, the slow speed performance could be some better. |
| Sound/Noise
level: | Somewhat
louder than newer Atlas or Kato engines, but considering the design age of the
mechanism it is very acceptable. |
