any issues with the stock rapido/arnold coupler on the back? I just got one of these and it seems like the rear coupler sits pretty low and when pulling tenshodo passenger cars the higher sitting coupler on the passenger cars always wants to come out and so it drops the cars pretty often. any ideas?
Depends on the controller. Hopeless on a Marklin controller, the start voltage is too high. i use a Gaugemaster and the slow speed running is ideal on that
Thanks. I am looking at a Rokuhan package from Japan, it comes with the Rokuhan controller which can run on batteries (so it should not give too high a starting voltage).
Close, but not quite. The vowel you're reading as rhyming with "hair" doesn't exist in English, so you're still anglicising it while criticizing OP. Honestly, "Mair-klin" sounds more cringe than "Mahr-klin", if you can't actually pronounce the "Mär" syllable.
I love the music score!
Great info too. My Roku DE10 1500 diesel runs beautifully . Affordable too.
Rokuhan trains are almost Mini Kato ones 😂 Smooth as heaven. And older Marklin are incredible, but... hard to hell to mantain 😅😅😅
Please do more of these reviews of Rokuhan products, they are informative and enjoyable ;-)
Excellent test, another useful z gauge video. Thanks.

Perfect test, very well done
How smooth do the Rokuhan steam locos start from a standing position and when coming to a halt? Cheers, Glenn.
Looks like a good model to convert into an Nn3 engine. Should be easy to Americanize.

How many volts needs to work?
10
The first syllable of Märklin rhymes with "hair".

Dreary. Y'all don't get out much, huh?
