<p>My J1 squeals through 24" (That curve was handlaid with a little bit tighter radius in spots) and slows greatly and gets amp-hungry. I wont even try the Duplex on that.</p><p>Now the little Y3 from Proto eases through the 24 just fine although the front truck is super sensitive to track flaws greater than it's flange depth. I depend on Kato to eliminate as much as I can and file down the rest to metal shavings LOL.</p><p>To the poster with the idea of a flawless 2x4 with a length of a engine, wont a simple 1 or 2 feet long Bubble level made of precision metal work just as well?</p>
