Vintage tinplate 0 gauge live steam: Bassett-Lowke Stanier Mogul test run

[@artfulldodger5597]

What radius curves are you running the old BL mogul on?

[@jtd5530]

I prefer running them on 90 cm (3 ft) radius, for example on my vintage Bassett-Lowke tubular track. The old Moguls do just so run through a 60 cm (2 ft) radius, but only with much binding. I own an od B-L Hughes "Crab". Its higher cylinders leave more freedom of mevement for the front bogie, so this loco performs better on 60 cm radius curves.
