The geared down motors should not be the problem, when lifting up the loco everything runs fine at a reasonable speed. I guess, the motors have not enough torque an the way from the middle section to both driven axles is to long and complex. The connecting rods also add resistance, maybe because the first "M" wheel is not using a 6L axle going through but rare black Technic pins without friction. I had to do this because the coupling of the small wheel is centered at the first "M" wheel. I am thinking of some nice cars for this locomotive so one can get another train motor as shown in the video where another engine is pushing.
