What's the tightest radius...

Hello ELPARRo, <br /> <br />You might be surprised at how gracefully the Rivarossi Heislers negotiate tight curves, uneven surfaces and uneased gradients. I have very shoddy trackwork in the upper logging levels and they handle it like mountain goats. <br /> <br />I run a pair of 2 trucks and a 3 truck. There is no difference in their ability to do anything the 3rd truck is flexibly attached. <br /> <br />I have no Bachmann Shays but I do run a 2 truck and a 3 truck MDC. These are not quite as forgiving as the Heislers but I have not had any binding problems on either. They negotiate the logging line with easy stride. I also have a couple of MDC Climaxes that make easy but noisy work of the line. <br /> <br />No diesel I have run can make it up that far but then there is no reason for them to try.
