| 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. |
