Hi, everyone my 2-8-0 and medium vanderbuilt tender finaly came from the Favorite Spot. I tested the locomotive with its origanal tender and it ran perfectly. When I put the vanderbuilt tender it ran okay untill it came to a curved section of track. When it hit this the front wheels of both the tender's trucks poped off the track. I'v tried messing around with the wires since they seem a bit stiff but this hasn't provided any reasults. Any sugestions would be apriciated, thanks,
Ryan

The following thread has a picture showing added weight in the tender. (6th post) There is also information about shell removal.
