Actually, IMHO. it worked too well for its time. You had to brake one of the units by actually slowing it down like the prototype. No control system had that, it meant braking by reversing the power feed--very carefully. I still miss Bob Miller, I was fortunate to visit him and his facility several times in the mid '60s. The closest thing to it in the modeling world was the late John Allen, who used a car battery in his control system to get similar results.

Good idea that did not work very well re control. Stan
