Can you do the same but without traction tires? PS, not really a 10-wheeler, as there's only 3 powered axles! Any chance, of a decapod being made by Rapido Trains? Cheers!
Thank ya" i would appreciate the test done w/o the traction tire. Since it will be shipped without the tire mounted, i would like to see how it would perform when i open the box. I have a way of jinxing a model once i remove a screw, and thus if it performs pretty well, i will not open her up to exchange the axle/tire.
But....how does it pull without the traction tires? I'm wondering how it will perform on my Slocan transfer slip/car float set up. I have a 2 percent grade to the slip, with an slight angle up the transfer slip, onto the apron and then the car float. So far all my other switcher engines handle it well (P2K 0-8-0's and Gp9's). The 0-8-0's have a bit of play in the wheels which allows them to follow the rail. So I'm curious as to how the D10 will perform. Either way, I'm looking forward to when they finally ship out. 👍
So...at 2:31 of the last video, Bill dismissed the idea of traction tires, but for this video they had to be put back on? Why would they have been such a no-no in the first place?
The location is closest to Sidney Center New York. Officially the NYO&W called it "Maywood" to avoid confusion with the town of Sidney several miles up the line.
I can't wait to pick up my reserved 1057 and then have it sitting in a box for 50 years with the hopes of a layout that will never happen. By then Holographic virtual trains will render plastic obsolete and my body will be chronologically frozen until the year 3150. I'll then open the box and get to marvel at my 1057 once more.
That bridge scene looks awesome.
Bill does some nice work!
Wow what a beautiful Layout. Hope to see more in the future. Thanks for sharing.
For sure! We'll be using Bill's layout more often as he completes the scenery.
That viaduct scene is beautiful!
Bill certainly does some great modelling!
I'm looking forward to getting mine, and hoping for the CNR models, too.
We hope to relaunch the CNR H6 at some point in the future to help improve the preorder numbers. So far they have been very low.
I’m still waiting for my d10 on pre order rn
They are coming soon! Should be ready to ship from the factory in a month or so.
Wow, this looks great, maybe one day in N scale !!!
Maybe one day! We have lots more N scale in the works.
Will the final D10s have a custom sounds or would it use the loksound SOO 1003 pack for release?
The D10 sound file is being custom done with ESU. Not sure what they're using for the base sounds.
Thanks! Important info for planning......
You're welcome!
Can you make a video on how to install traction tires please. I would like one.
I Guess the RAPIDO HO scale Canadian Pacific g5 class steam locomotive is later, correct?
Can you do the same but without traction tires? PS, not really a 10-wheeler, as there's only 3 powered axles! Any chance, of a decapod being made by Rapido Trains? Cheers!
It has too do with two wheels on one Axel. Hence 4'6'0 4 leading 6 driving 10 wheels.
The 4-6-0 wheel configuration has always been traditionally called 'ten-wheeler' in North America.
We may do another video without the traction tires in the future, possibly once the production models arrive.

Traction tires will be included in the box to be installed if needed.
It's still a cute little locomotive! 😎. 🚂
Thanks!

The factory put traction tires on the sample, but the production model will have them in the box for optional installation.
Chuff rate seems a bit fast, does the rate vary using back EMF or is there a cam?
The chuff rate will be corrected on the production models. This feature is controlled with a hall sensor and magnet mounted on the flywheel.
I really like the backdrop. Did you print them on your own? They look like they would be perfect for my New Hampshire layout.
Bill makes his own using an inexpensive Canon inkjet printer and 13x19 "Luster" photo paper.
Beauty layout eh!! Looks great
Thanks!
What is it with traction tyres in North America on steam? Do it again without.
Some modellers like traction tires, others don't so we offer both options. We'll likely do another video at some point in the future as well.
Looks awesome.
Thanks!
Traction tires or the need for traction tires🤔.on the fence about that. Tis a super nice looking piece tho👌🚂🇨🇦
Our D-10 will be coming with both the standard driver and an optional replacement with traction tires so you can choose which suits you best!
Where on the NYO&W is that bridge?
The location is closest to Sidney Center New York. Officially the NYO&W called it "Maywood" to avoid confusion with the town of Sidney several miles up the line.
Super video.
Thank you very much!
Ruling grade of roughly 1 in 57?
Roughly yes.
Why do the chuffs seem off?
They are off, but it will be corrected for the production models.

😅
Why are traction tires such a no no?
Some people want them, others don't We're including a replacement driver with traction tires installed in the box for those who want to use them.
I'm sure if you throw some sand on those rail, it can pull up to 100 cars.
That would be quite the sight.
But can it vacuum the floors & take out the trash? 😉
😂
Ok i want one now.. my wife just said...thanks alot! Ha ha ha lol
Any time! 😁
Is it bad that I want to turn one of these into a Milwaukee road switcher 😂
Very cool, never need one. It chuffs way to fast about twice to fast. Nice non-the-less.
The chuff is being corrected for the production models.
What? Traction tires? Say it ain't so.😩
Not on the the production model, they'll be in the box to be optionally installed!
Also, can someone get Bill one of those mini tripods? :)
👍
