With all this turnout talk, I felt motivated to create a short shoot. <a href="http://s181.photobucket.com/albums/x173/fallsvalleyrr/?action=view&current=KatoUnitrack6Switch.flv">http://s181.photobucket.com/albums/x173/fallsvalleyrr/?action=view&current=KatoUnitrack6Switch.flv</a>This is with the Duplex. The Radius on both sides of the turnout is 34 1/8" in a 10 degree curve. The second curveback is also 10 degrees. There is a small amount of overhang on the inside drive axles and some offset in the couplers. <a href="http://s181.photobucket.com/albums/x173/fallsvalleyrr/?action=view&current=J1Kato6Switch.flv">http://s181.photobucket.com/albums/x173/fallsvalleyrr/?action=view&current=J1Kato6Switch.flv</a>This one is the long wheelbase PRR J1, Ive not have had to make any increase in power to get it through the switch as it used to need it on the much smaller ones. If it is possible, I think this tender is even bigger than the Duplex and rocked a little through.I apologize in advance for the high levels of background noise, I dont live in a quiet house.
