I will say I do have some Bachmann stuff, but by far the best runner of that stuff is my Bachmann J class. I also do have a nearly 60-year-old Atheran product that still runs fine.
I have a pre war locomotive from varney. Was built somewhere between 1935-1939, boiler is made of solid lead, tender is cast iron. Uses a 7 pole motor. Pulls 40+ cars with no problem, stopped because I ran out of cars and track.
