Minimally a battery powered system would have to pull a 6 wide consist of
10-12 cars for at least an hour to even be considered viable for a show.
And that doesn’t even address 8 wide (We have run both on our layouts).

The topic of battery life and pulling power came up today -
click here for that
thread. Hopefully it can address some of your concerns.

Any idea how much weight was being pulled? 20 flatcars could be lighter than 20
boxcars. That amount of run time with that many cars does sound promising
though.
