I tried it about 6-8 years ago. Maybe more. I had a 7X24 track that I put down purposely to find out. I have a P2K E8/9 that seemed pretty potent. I put metal wheels on all cars, weighted them to spec, and made sure they rolled good. I put 102 cars on and that P2K walked right around with them. Only one other loco could do it, and that was an IHC Challenger. It pulled 101 because I had to take off one car because it was longer. Technically it was 102 because it had a tender.
Once I satisfied my curiosity, I changed to a 5X20. Don't you all wish you had space like that, a room 12X38?
