I am designing my layout and I will be using O-72 and O-60 Fastrack on my mainline but I want to use some O-48 switches and curves on a reverse loop.   

 

Does anyone have a Lionel Scale Berk and tried to put it through Fastrack O-48 switches and curves?  Lionel states its minium curve is O-54.

 

Thanks for your help.

Yes!  I use FasTrack and have a scale Lionel Pere Marquette 1225.  I have an O-72 loop and an O-60 loop.  My layout has a large siding that uses 1/4 circle of O-48 curves at each end.  The Berk goes through them just fine.  If you try to go fast, there will be a slight rubbing noise, which is why the suggest O-54.  My last setup had a 1/2 circle of O-48 with one O-48 switch...the Berk ran through with no problems.
