The engine swings out id say about 4 to five studs when he uses it on my layout, its the new logging train because he takes out all my trees… Keep in mind that its also a 8 wide system not the typical 6 wide from LEGO. Still awesome!
Did you post the picture of it with my Santa Fe cars?
Didn’t put pictures up with the Santa Fe cars yet, ill do that soon.
Yup, for sure. And I saw Mac from DelVaLUG posting on facebook recently about 48 stud long trains bottoming out on uneven tables, etc. – something else to watch out for. That said, this could be really cool if we plan for it.
Interesting, I never thought about that too much because my layout is really flat, but I’ll definitely put it on a grade and see how far it goes. I should probably order the drive rods, running gear, and one more train motor for the tender.
