eastworld Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 What are the running qualities of Tenshodo SPUDs like? There are a few kits I'm interested in that are intended to use them. I know that generally Black Beetles are meant to be better but the kits I'm interested in use a bogie of a size that Black Beetle don't do. I'm interested in smooth low speed running for shunting.

Stu Not very controllable is the short answer. Black beetles are far better. Are you sure you cannot get the configuration you need made up as a special. They made up some very odd wheelbases for me a couple of years ago. Bernard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
