Looking for Engine Spec for two of NarrowGauge's locomotives?

[wkwood]

I hope somebody can help and Narrowgauge doesn't accept messages. Does anybody
have a copy of kuid:65931:52009 it's an Engine Spec and is used on Narrogauge's 24 DHR Loco B798 and B795

They're not in the download station and Google gives me two dead ends.

Narrowgauge's 24 DHR locos are mostly all 0-4-0 so should all use similar enginespecs. I downloaded two of his latest versions:
XB780,<kuid2:44700:8780:2>
XB785,<kuid2:44700:8785:5>
and looked at their enginespecs;
DHR B Class Engine Specifications for #785,<kuid2:44700:518721:1>
DHR B Class Engine Specifications fo #8780,<kuid2:44700:518780:1>
They have different kuid numbers but the parameters in them are the same. I's suggest you replace any missing engine specs for those 24 DHR locos with any other that you have or those I list above.

Thanks! I'll try the alternate spec but also I'll try an e-mail.

Malc, thanks, I do prefer emails because I see them, I don't look normally look for PMs.

About the Engine specs. There are two types and they are not interchangeable. We dedicated two locos to the sessions as we found that as the DHR is a 'dark route' with no signals, AI drivers drove at caution all the time, ignored the speed posts, and would not drive faster than 8 mph. To overcome this I had to increase the loco mass by 10 times (100 ton locos) and this overcame the problem. Don't ask me why, it just did. If you haven't seen any speed posts, they're there, just invisible.

I will see if I can sort the problem out will and report back.

The story behind this engine spec is that it was created by Bob Pearson and when we updated the DHR it was the one item I could not upload. I emailed him at the time but his address had changed, I have asked him again but so far no reply.

To fix the problem short term here is the spec:-

If there are problems, I will see if I can fix them but he is the expert, not me.

I had made the changes suggested, but now I'll back them out. Thanks again!
