RMweb Premium SR71 Posted December 11, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 11, 2019 The Bachmann LYR 2-4-2 has peaked my interest in the prototype for radial tanks. That and my first cab ride was the Adams radial tank... But what is a radial tank? As far as I can work out it's a form of axle articulation that isn't involving pony/bogie trucks. It involves a thing referred to as a radial axle or cannon axle and that is about all I can find! I can't find any diagrams or drawings of one to see how it was set up. Does anyone have any references that would give a picture of one? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamport Southport Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 A previous thread should cover most of it. https://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/133253-what-is-a-radial-tank/ Jason 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
