My sincere thanks to each of you for your helpful information. I am working on the layout, but taking your advice and sticking to 9 foot circle track. Again thank you all so very much.

I am a new (and old age) train owner. Have not yet set up layout. Question: Can the above engine 2-8-0 run on the tightest curve track? Someone told me it could run only on a curve track which makes a 9 foot diameter circle. Because of space limits I would like to run on a tighter curve in places. Please send email (carrbc@aol.com) if you can.

Thank you so very much!
