Hi Graham --
I believe it. I was just a bit disappointed when mine "only" pulled 16
mixed brass, resin, plastic) cars up the 2% (the whole train). A later
look revealed that all but two cars were well weighted, 4 were brass, and
the caboose had axle wipers for its lighting, so there was quite a lot of
drag in that short train. We'll just consider it all "loads"...
Have fun!

My 2-10-2 while pulling 35 cars (mostly SHS Reefers) went up
a 2% grade where at least half of the train was on the grade. It also
pulled 40 cars which caused the drivers to slip but it made it. I
have witnesses if anyone doubts me
