USAT SD70MAC inquiry - a few questions:
Can all reading answer any of the following questions:
1) Are all production run USAT SD70MAC locos from day one devoid of traction tires on ALL of its wheels?
2) If not, are newer production runs devoid of traction tires?
(If so, can some form of identification or date be provided in which to distinguish this?)
3) How much does the USAT SD70MAC model weigh?
4) Does this loco include or is it designed to accommodate added extra weights?
5) Are all 6 axles (3 per truck) power driven?
6) What type of bearings does this loco employ to support its drive axles?
(e.g. brass bushings, ball bearings, or other)
7) How does the USAT SD70MAC speed compare to the Aristo-Craft GE Dash 9?
8) What Kadee couplers are recommended for it?
Thanks in advance & much appreciated,
-Ted
