Mine does the same.  I'm curious to hear the responses from the group.

On30 / gear noise on a 2 truck shay
January 30, 2011, 04:25:28 PM
Hi all,
Just got a 2 truck shay, but there is a "high spot" that makes a noise every time this high spot is hit.  Will this wear in with a break-in period or should I send it back?

On30 / minimum and "normal" radius for ON30 gear
January 28, 2011, 12:29:21 PM
Hi all, 

I'm new to ON30 (been an HO'er all my life).  I've started collecting rolling stock and a few steam engines.  Now it's time to start planning the layout.

What is considered the normal radius to use for these and what is the minimum?  The largest engine in my collection is the 2-6-0, others are a Shay and Forney.  Unfortunately I don't have gobs of room.  I was planning 18 to 22 inch radius.

Thoughts from the group?
