Title: Trolley Minimum Track Radius
Post by: HHRR on November 12, 2009, 02:27:21 PM

I know this question has been asked before, but I cannot find the reponses. What is the minimum radius track that the trolley will operate on without derailing.

Thanks, Joe

Joe,
I just tried mine on a 18" and 15" radius curves and it ran very good on both of them.

I have set up a small Christmas theme using the trolley and the track radius I use is less than 10". Runs around these curves without any problems at all.

Joe,

I built a small Christmas display for in the window at my friend's shop, the tightest radius is right around 5" and the trolley goes around that with no problem.
