The 4-6-4 'Callisto' Class Shunter Steam Locomotive

*******************************************************************************************************************
Firstly I wanted to thank creators of all those amazing mods we are using: Equinox, peaceman, wolfgar7474, C3ntron and STORI3D PAST Productions

*******************************************************************************************************************
Technical data:

- max width: 10 blocks (2.5 m)
- max height: -- blocks (- m)
- max lenght: -- blocks (- m)
- number of engines: 1x large (100HP)
- driving wheel size: 3 (small)
- number of driving wheels: 6
- number of weighting chests: 4
- suspension: modified older style Onca's grate suspension with rope and perm-bogie stabilisation
- max speed with no load: 120 km/h (74 mph)
- max load while maintaining 15-40 km/h: 50 t @ 4° * (12 full stone stockpiles)
- max absolute load: 200 t @ 0° * (47 full stone stockpiles)
- max weighting needed: 18 t @ 200 t load

*Grades bigger than 5 have not been tested, as I consider them unrealistic. The engine should work just fine with steeper slopes, but the maximum possible cargo load may decrease a bit.

Description:

Sometimes there is need for just a smaller locomotive to haul smaller loads or operate in tighter spaces. If you are in such situation, this is the best loco for you! It is very cheap and small, but thanks to using the smallest wheels possible, the single engine's power is transferred as efficient as it gets.

*******************************************************************************************************************
Setup instructions:

Just place on a straight piece of track and it's ready to go!

*******************************************************************************************************************
Operating hints:

- IMPORTANT - when going at higher speed, wheel slip is unavoidable. And wheel slip can cause occasional slight damage to wheels over time. So it is a very good habit to check the wheels at every stop with a hammer and give them the occasional whack to not let the damage accumulate. This is important as the small wheels have much less hitpoints than larger ones.
- The engines can be reached for switching/grabbing throttle from the ground.
- If the wheels slip and the engine wont move, it needs more weighting. Place heavy items (ingots, weights, dirt) into the 4 weighting vases (located on both sides between the driving axles).
- Clanging and crackling noises are normal and should not be worried about.
- The engine has no breaks. To slow down, just decrease the throttle. If more stopping power is needed, throttling up in reverse works great.
