[#welcome] trainman4 to the forum !! That sounds like a pretty big engine you have there, congratulations !! Are you calling the traditional Lionel track, analog track ? I haven't heard that term for track before, so be sure & tell us what you have in track. Also I believe your engine will run on it, it's just the radius to be concerned with. You may need at least 42 inch diameter curves for it to negotiate. We're not sure exactly which eng. you have either, as they have made a few over the years.
Thanks & let us know what you have !
