Minimum Radius for N&W 2-8-8-2

[nw-modeling-list at nwhs.org]

Mac -

The Life Like N&W 2-8-8-2 is not jointed prototypically so it will negotiate 
sharp curvature - probably 18" radius or less.

However, the larger the radius the better it will look; if you could hold 
your minimum to 24" or larger it would be much more satisfactory.

Yours aye, too!
