Experience with Train Line 45 HSB 0-6-0T on R1 curves

[idlemarvel]

I am thinking of getting one of these and although they are advertised as working on 600mm radius curves after my experience with the LGB 0-8-0T I am a bit wary of how well they might work. Can anyone who has one of these please comment?
Thanks.

I assume you mean either Fiffi (6102) or Pfiffi (6101), Dave? If so, both of mine seem quite OK though R1 curves, and even the "S" curves of toe-to-toe R1 points - we had no trouble at all on the portable layout the other weekend, and that is all R1.....

I know I've posted this pic a couple of times before, but just to prove the point:



Pfiffi happily negotiated all the pointwork in the station area.

That's exactly what I meant, thanks Jon.
