Lead tracks on mine are 24" and 36" Inbound, outbound. Running, big boy, cab forward and Y6b. Need a 130ft turn table to turn them and about 32" min radius on the Big Boy (tender is the problem and looks.)
hope this helps

Okay for you guys out there with large locos such as challengers and bigboys
what are your typical roundhouse lead track lengths.
