Your right I was thinking about my O gauge which the smallest is 48 and the largest 96 diameter,  The HO gauge is 34" .  I have a spectrum steam 0-6-4 that will not run on it  without removing the front 4. But it is to light for what I am pulling.  I have an old Hershey's (Bachman) with engine  number 1993 that runs fine and pulled 20 cars for years, at 8  per week that needs a new motor now. Wanted to get a few more heavy engines that would pull the load, with sound.  Their is only 4 curves in the layout and no turnouts as this is just to show the size in our store. I am a Lionel O gauge guy (and dealer) and HO is just a second thought to me. Know next to nothing about it.  Have some NZ up on a standalone rail just to show the difference in gauges.   Just looking for a good HO engine that is dependable and as the 1993 was a great engine for a ready to run set, I am going to stick to Bachman.

Looking for a heavy loco that will run on 48 radius in dc mode with sound, Need to be able to pull 20 cars
Thanks

I was talking about HO., I have and HO N and O setups, O being by big one with 375 of track laid on outer circle. 

It is a dual motor. The engine pulls good for a boxed  set. I have an expensive dual motor engine 2-10-2 and it will on stay on the track. The front 2 runoff every curve. They rest stay on track all the way. They are in gauge and the track is too. Everything else I run on it works fine and runs all day without indecent. Curves are 54' diameter in perfect radius according to the track gauge.  I have it in storage as no time to figure it out, And my main setup is in O gauge.

Where do I need to lube this engine?
