Vance -- How successfully will that Forney be at handling cars coupled
on the rear around curves??? I built an 0-4-4T Forney in On3 with a
comparable slot in the truck bolster and found it needed a surprisingly
wide radius. Effectively, that Forney is a six-coupled loco with a very
long wheelbase. [And even electric powered, it helped my vocabulary and
especially my rhythm! <<BG>>] Charles
