Probably a safe bet. It is a variation of bachmanns smallest loco.

my old one does 18' just fine but if you want to see if it will do 15", take it to a local hobby shop and set up a half circle of bulk 15"radius track with the engine, tender and a car to see if the gaps are large enough to run.

Thank you. I have not bought it yet so that is why I have not done that.
