What is min radius for spectrum Nscale2-8-0

Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, August 24, 2004 9:37 PM

Does anybody know what the min radius is that the bachman Spectrum 2-8-0 will handle?
How about turnouts ( Atlas)?
Most of my curves are 15-18" radius but I do have one or two 10".

I've successfully run it around 9" radius Atlas snap-track. My dad's N scale home layout has 11" radius mainline curves, and it works beautifully on those as well, so you should be fine.
