[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by In training Hi, more woes from me . I have a new GG 1 and on 18" raduis turns it derails the first car behind it. There is not enough travel in the coupler on the engineto make the turn. Any suggestions and help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jon [/quote] I think the swing coupler is a great idea,but remember the longer your cars the more twisting they do on those short radius turns,does it derail 40 foot freight cars or shorter,are you running 85 foot passenger cars?Of course larger radius turns are better but for some not feasible.Good luck and keep us posted,there is no dought that someone here in the forum will be able to answer all your questions,and as you learn alot of us here learn with you.Terry.
