NG Porter 0-4-0 Locomotive

I have downloaded a Porter 0-4-0 and placed it on a layout of a hardrock mining operation. It is a great little loco and it runs well as long as it isn't pulling anything. When I attempted to pull six ng orecars, it wouldn't move, even on the level.
I have two photographs (1890's +/-) that show the Porter, one is pulling orecars and the other is pulling plank "side dumps".
Is there anyone who knows how (or even if it is possible) to modify the "config file" to increase the towing capacity?
I'll try anything - - - - once anyway.
Thanks
 
Im not sure on this, but open your Content manager, then find your Porter NG Loco, right click and select "edit in Content Creator"

I messed around with this a while ago, and you may be able to change values on that.

If the locomotive was made for an old Trainz version like TRS2004 or TRS2006 then that may be why. From what I have read, steam enginespecs have changed since Trainz Classics, so I older steam enginespecs may perform incorrectly. Try looking for a suitable proper, newer enginespec to set the locomotive to use.

That is Pencil42's Porter on the DLS, and it is indeed a TRS2004 locomotive, so the enginespec will not be up-to-spec in Trainz Classics and later.
