prrjim posted:If you compare the Weaver M1A with a USH or MG model (2-rail) it appears that the pilot deck is too long to me. But it runs well on 072 curves, so that is very good.
Three rail, it will operate on my O54 curves. There is one back to back switch that requires reduced speed. Agree the pilot and nose need shortened a bit. Lengthened to allow the pilot wheels clearance from the steam chest. IMO. One of Weaver's first brass offerings.
Interesting to note that the Third Rail Decapod tender with the quad-wheel assemblies can also be track limiting feature.
