finally got a chance to run the Hiawatha. It does not run on my home layout.

Steve,
Why doesn't it run on your home layout?
Joe, it does run on my 57” outer loop about 2/3 of the way around. The other third of the layout it hits walls and the sides of my Erector bridge. Someday I will rebuild the bridge and slide the track around a bit. For now, I can run it at club meets. It is very impressive.

How is the smoke unit as issued? I have had to rework both mine and a friend's with angel hair. Then both performed well!
That is a beast!!!

Art, the smoke is pretty weak when running it in conventional. It does not use enough voltage to get the smoke going. In TMCC at higher voltage it smokes pretty well.
