It’s also not hinged to another truck; it only has to rotate around its
center point. Being attached to the motor truck, the 3-axle trucks in the
GG1 are being pulled a little bit off center as the wheels go into the curve,
and I think that’s why the 3-axle truck can’t make it in this case.
I’ll play around with the trucks at some point - but the layout won’t require
traversing the curved side of any switches at the show so I’ll live with it
as-is for now.

Bruce Chamberlain postulated that the problem is due to one of the 3-axle trucks
being *pushed* through the curve rather than pulled. I suspect that a rubber
band between the two 3-axle trucks would help - I will try that sometime.
