Hello,

I have built the Scenic Ridge layout and want to use a Steam Locomotive.  I would like to add DCC and sound.  I have looked at the 4-8-2 Light Mountain but heard they are iffy on the tight radius.  I heard the heavy mountain might work better, is this true?  I suppose my next choice would be the 2-8-0.  Any input or suggestions that would help better define my choice?  Again the radius is my key concern, 4% grade would be next issue. 

Thanks!

David
