Locomotives Operating On Code 40 Track

Ian has a question for anyone using code 40 track:

“I have read that several N Scale modellers use code 40 track produced by Micro Engineering to differentiate between main line (code 55) and sidings, loops, dead ends and branch lines. I am doing the same, however, although all my rolling stock will pass over Code 40 track perfectly, being fitted with Micro-Trains low profile wheelsets, the only power which I have found that will do so is that made by Bachmann/Spectrum. Have any modeller colleagues any suggestions as to how I can extend the range of locomotives I can use on Code 40 track?”
