You need to check any locomotive you buy to see if it will negotiate 027 curves before actually buying it. As a general rule, any Lionel postwar steamer except the scale Hudson and the Berkshire should work. Postwar diesels that will work are the NW-2, the GP-9 and the Alco FA-2. I have seen videos where the GG-1 electric will run on 027 track, but I have never actually tried it myself. The Fairbanks-Morse and F-3 diesels will NOT run on 027 track. For freight cars, the scout and 6464 series will work. Usually any freight car that is 10 inches long or less will work. For passenger cars, the 2400 series will run on 027 track. That's all I can think of off the top of my head.
