All: I have listened to this for some time and the correct answer is the check gage for the wheel set(reguardless of contour) must equal the check gage for the track!!!!!! The new problem is the track gage max you have on you layout must be rechecked to make sure the track gage is not too width when running the smaller wheel tread width. I found this on my own layout. I use Code 110, 93 & 88 wheel widths. Now I can back thru any part of my layout with out problems! Also I use 24" radius curves. Paul

Running P:64 wheels on "ordinary" trackwork will result in less-than-optimum results especially when backing up.
