Big engines sell. It's a fact.
The Flyer Challenger runs absoluetly fine on 20" radius curves using the
Rivarrosi style of articulation where both engins pivot.
I see no reason that Lionel will abandon the method or MTH will not use it.
Heck, MTH even figued ot how to articulate the frame of the HO UP 4-12-2 to
negotiate 22" radius curves.
Now, bear in mind that MTH has a beatiful H10 in O, there's no reason to
believe that it won't be translated into S eventually.
