Does anyone know what the minimum turning radius of the 2-8-0 Consolidated is? I'm looking at running one on a very small Christmas layout that will have a 18" radius on a continuous loop. Thanks!
I have two consolidateds. I have run both on 15" radius with no problems. An 18" radius loop should be just fine for your Connie. Make sure the rolling stock is 40' or less.

mine gets around 18" with perfect results. 15" would be about the minimum it could go if track work was good. use sectional track for this if you can..

Thanks, a bunch guys! I'd hate to spend the money only to find out it wouldn't work!
