YAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!

Keep up the good work Walter!

Just ran my new NHI RMT ore cars this morning.   Unfortunately there’s a problem.  
On 27” and 31” curves when running a single ore car there’s no problem.  But if I couple the two NHI RMT ore cars together the consist won’t clear either radius turn.   I realize the cars are rated for 31” radius but there’s still an issue with that curve on my layout.  
Anyone else having this problem?   The trucks look ok but I’m thinking the car body doesn’t have the clearance.   Perhaps a larger radius curve is needed?   I only have two ore cars but have 4 more being delivered this week.

Are they weighted enough?  I remember someone posting that they had to add weight to their Lionel Ore Cars.  Temporarily drop some weights inside of them to see if it helps.

RMT-967113 Long Island 'Dashing Dan' Ore Car (Single Car)

The first timetable to have indicated Dashing Dan was in September 1959, although he was shown in the April 1957 Long Island Railroader magazine. Thus, the Dashing Dan logo/scheme appears after 10/1959 as the FM C-liner diesel units arrived in the paint shop. These units sported colors of a lighter charcoal gray (which has been nicknamed: "Goodfellow gray"), orange nose ends, and pilots. This scheme was also applied to all diesels as they went into the shop for maintenance and repainting. This practice continued until 1964 when the C-liners were removed from service and replaced by the ALCO C-420 road units. Dan first made his "official" appearance to the public on the back cover of the 1956 LIRR Annual Report. "Dashing Dan," was the image created to personify the LIRR's slogan, "The Route of the Dashing Commuter." Sand loading at the former LIRR customer in Aquebouge, NY is referenced on each LIRR car and shows a sand load.
