Reply to "Sunset 3rd Rail SF 2-10-4 5032"

There are modifications. One of my (2) Sunset models is a Pennsy I1 decapod, 2-10-0. Much smaller drivers, but the 1st and 4th set of drivers are flanged. I had discussion with someone about moving the flange set on the I1 to the 3rd set of drivers. Pictures above show the 1st and 5th set of drivers to be flanged on the 2-10-4.   Makes quite a difference as to how it negotiates curves.  Those in the know, may be able to tell you whether you can switch the flanged drivers on your 2-10-4, or with a trailing (4) wheel truck, whether it would work or not.

 

I also have an MTH Russian Decapod that easily does Atlas O-45 curves.  A Russian Decapod is a relatively small locomotive.

Best wishes on your beautiful new locomotive

Mike
