In spite of multiple reports that the 2 vertical motor drives are performing very well, I will always prefer 1 motor and driveshafts. No 2 motors will ever be perfectly synchronized. Since they are/will be coming RTR with DCC that lessons my concerns for wiring it though.
I have 6 or so mid 90s Overland/RRM diesels that came with 2 small HO motors not coupled together. I will swap that set up out for 1 center motor and driveshafts. If the motors were tied together I might not be as motivated to change it. The one possible plus about the 2 motor drive would on an articulated, if 1 drive could slip momentarily and have the sound unit pick up on the slip. That would be interesting! Like it or not I have no choice. That is the way it seems new locos are heading with 2 motors.
