Will a 4-4-0 and 4-6-0 handle 2ft radius curves.These engine styles were used by Canadian Pacific in the early years and would like to run them on my existing set up.Thks.

The Bachmann 4-6-0 will go around 2ft radius curves. The Bachmann 4-4-0 will not. I know that sounds strange, but it's a more realistic model without some of the compromises used on the 4-6-0.

Hope this helps - Paul
