I'm interested in the Hornby Railroad 9F Evening Star. My two layouts, however, are quite small -- one is 4x6' and the other is 3x4'. Consequently, they use very tight curves. The largest radius curve is basically 18" (here, in North America, curve radii are still measured in inches) but I also have one loop that uses curves that are 16" while the tightest are 15".
I'm just wondering if this 9F will be able to cope with such tight curves without derailing. Maybe I'm crazy to even think about this (especially for the 15" curves)!
Thanks for any feedback or advice!
