Well have I not played with trainz for a while now. But the other day I had a craving for it, and I wanted it tobe hilly. So I created a 15 tile board going from neg 500 to pos 100. checked with mainline with a 20 car coal train with 2 engines and it ran ok. well it toped out at about 30mph going up hill and if I stoped I would never get going again. But the grade never looked like it was too much. So all appeard well and I continued to add in industry and such.
So far I have spent about 20 hours on the track. But the grade got me worried again. So to ease my mind I figured I would come here and check out what the norm is for grades. 2.5 max!!!?
Am I just looking at the number of 20 and should be reading as a 2 percent grade or is it truly 20 percent? And if it is truly 20 percent do I need to scrap my current track and start over?
