  Hi Rick and All;

  Hey! Tell us more about the 11' Warfield Warp whatever motors! Sounds
like the'll be fun. As I'm passed the 10000 mile mark with my Warfield
rewound ADC 9" and were still honeymooning. Com brite and shiny, brushes
like new.Well, only 120 volt system, no current limit, and 400 amp hills
all over the place when I'm not doin' 65-70 on the turnpike to work.
Warfield has Sep-ex stuff, too. When he comes up with a controller/
motor combo out of the box, DC will have a new lease on life! Direct
drive and full range speeds and regen, Wow! worth waiting for, just like
now's Amtrak's AEM-7 Electric locos the're Sep-Ex, too and work great.
But we dont charge batteries with all the leftover juice, heat up
resisters to slow down.
