slipping
TBH if the rail head is greasy, almost anything will "dance" if power is applied too harshly. But as to what loco class is the worst. I've no idea!
I've seen some extreme examples of how not to control a slip, and some drivers successfully coping with repeated attempted slips.....
IIRC some classes of diesel have an automatic detection / control for wheelslip! (takes the fun out of coping with wet leaves on the rail....)
I'm a bit too washed out to trawl back for the details....
