still wondering if the trucks will take the turns!

Nice for USTrash :).

You mean AmTrash? ;-)

But, to answer your question, yes a 3 Axle truck will
clear a corner, I had them under my dinner car for a while, and they will
corner if you have the axles right in a row.

Just a nit-- one is able to separate the axles by a half stud each.  For my
Hiawatha loco's tender I was able to do this and still not have problems with
curves.  I'm afraid that the pics I posted don't show it very well though:-/
