I am thinking about purchasing the Mikado. Is this a good locomotive? I have been so impressed with all AZL products, that I assume it is, but just wanted to reach out.
my plan is to have an outer loop of 270mm and an inner loop of 245mm
thanks
Jim

I'm very happy with mine. The Mikado is a strong puller and looks good. With the motor in the the tender it requires a little more care in handling. The front wheels can derail when pulling a long (heavy) train on 220mm curves, but that should be a problem for you.
My only complaint is that they didn't come with an option for an oil tender. Maybe in a future run.

Thanks Mark
My layout will be 2’ x 4’, so the loco will not be overloaded at all. I’ve just always liked Mikes
