Jupiter has 12,684 lbsf of starting tractive effort.

Starting TE = (K * P * D * D * S * C) / (W * 2)

K = Factor for losses .....................0.80 for saturated engines at full cutoff
P = Boiler pressure ...................... Boiler normal operating pressure: 160psi
D = Cylinder bore ........................16"
S = Piston stroke..........................24"
W = Driving wheel diameter............62" (includes 2.5" tyres)
C = Number of cylinders................2

it would be cool if you could script the link and pins to break like they did under stress. P.S. have you modeled(not textured) the cab interior yet?

You gotta give it a rest with the cab thing. When Mike has something to share about the cab he will. Just give it some time.
