How well does the triple wheel set on the engine take corners and points?
|
I haven’t tried it with this set, but I did try a six-wheeled version of the
locomotive from 4563. It worked fine, as long as the wheels were one set right
after the other. If there is any additional spacing between, one runs into
problems as soon as the locomotive enters a curve.
Of course, builders have various tricks for getting around this. Some use
sliding wheels, and BBB offers blind drivers for the purpose of making 6+
wheeled trucks.
