18" is all you need.

That's what mine has run on. Though it doesn't look great with the overhang

Fergie

It will look like a streetcar going around a curve that sharp.

I have seen the Athearn challenger,it is a great looking engine.I have not seen one run,though.I envy you.

Go for it. Best HO articulated steamer on the market. IMO, better than BLI's N&W Class A.

I did not vote because I am not impressed with the Athearn offering. But I roll my dice and I live with the results. You don't need my opinion, you need to make a choice and then follow through IMO. Go see one operate, look at it close up, weigh its virtues against its faults. Then chose for yourself. Those people that disagree with the things I purchase for my layout have the right to do so. I also have the right to like things nobody else wants. This hobby is a place where I can express myself, and I do. I do not wi***o have my hobby express someone elses opinion and, thusly, become burdensome rather than fun. Holy mackeral, Andy. There I go again, laying a full layer of verbosity on you fine fellows. You have my appology.

Steam is not just a hot vapor.

I'm a firm believer in "Should". I love my Challenger, runs better than my Allegheny, hauls better too.



Someday a second one?

Have Fun,
