Progress Report:
I tried my Lionel 65' mill gon again today thinking it had passed the wheel clearance test when I got it a couple months ago. This time I didn't tighten the screw on the truck quite as much not seeing how this would help much as I didn't tighten it to the last turn the 1st time I installed the Atlas trucks. I put it on my 60" radius curve&no problems! I tried it again and it cleared fine again. So I gave it the final test-I joined 2 #5 turnouts in an "S" crossover and it cleared them with flying colors! Maybe it was The Great Pumpkin that charmed it? Lol. If I ever get the money for conversion kits I think I will still do that. I'll wait 'till I get couplers on them. Again,I have to wait 'till I can put Protocraft type shelf couplers from Glacier Park Models which requires more greenbacks.
