Atlas 9" N scale turntable question
Author: holiwood

Any opinions on Atlas N Scale 9" turntable?
Looks like a Y6b will just fit on it, Has anybody tried Y6 or Big Boy on it?

Thanks for any advice

Wow, memories.   I had one in HO, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth.

It was fairly precise in alignment, the cam method stopped at every track, but NOISY, wow.

9" scales to 120' in N scale; the Y6b at 114 feet should fit (103 foot wheelbase) but a Big Boy typically used a 135 foot table so likely won't fit on the Atlas turntable.
