<p>I have just start an HO 100 scale on a 5 by 9 platform. Have two main tracks with the inter track having some spurs. Most of the curves are 18" radius or 22" radius but do have a couple that are 15" radius.</p><p>I looking for the right type of engine to run. I am going to use DC and would like the basic sound but am not going to get into the real fancy stuff.</p><p>I don't really understand the difference between the engines that have 12 wheels vs 8 wheels. The used train set I purchase several years ago uses an engine with just 8 wheels and I think that would be an ok type. But I think the new engines are better.</p><p> I am a retired BNSF person and of course would like a BNSF engine(s) but again am not looking for somthing really fancy.</p><p> Any suggestions? Thanks</p>
