<p>[quote user="richhotrain"]</p> <p>I don't believe that we ever got clarification from the OP as to which wheels he is talking about.</p> <p>Is it the pilot truck that needs more "play"?</p> <p>Or is the front set of driver wheels?</p> <p>Or is he talking about the entire front set of four driver wheels?</p> <p>Rich</p> <div style="clear:both;"> </div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>It could be as simple as an S curve. Even an gentle one will cause havoc with those T1s. One of my club members has a T1, and it derails on the diverging route of a turnout when the track curves back to parallel. It is a Peco medium turnout with some radius curve starting right after it. </p> <p>Also makes me wonder how well the prototype one is going to run when they finish building it.... The N&W's design is far superior solution to the problem the T1s sort of solved IMO. </p> <p>Honestly would rather see a NYC Hudson built new.</p> <p> </p>
