Bachmann Alco Mogul Minimum Radius

[Concord Grandpa]

Does anyone know the minimum radius that the Bachmann Alco Mogul engine can handle? I have a small layout with some 17" curves that I'd like to use a Mogul on, but don't want to invest in a small engine that can't be used. I like the looks and sound of the ATSF #9441.

Small engines, from every manufacturer are designed to go around small curves.

It's people who decide they need big engines to go around 17 inch curves are the ones that need help.  :-)

Not only won't they easily go around small curves, they look really stupid doing so if even if they can.

It will handle a 17" radius, I have an area that is 15" radius, no issues at all.

I have the same engine, ATSF 9441

Thanks, just the news I needed. I'm getting my order ready now.
