O-27 OPERATION
While the RailKing Dash-8 diesel is more than capable of operating on
O-27 curves and switches, you may find that certain light freight cars are
prone to derailing when being pulled or pushed by the RailKing Dash-8
through O-27 switches. Should this occur, we suggest adding weight to the
cars making them heavier and less likely to derail. In addition, the 6-wheel
version may rub the switch box.
