Here's more of an opinion question...
I've been thinking of buying (online) a LifeLike GP60, EMD Demonstrator, Oakway Leasing...but am just a bit hesitant. I have two LifeLike diesels and although the fit and finish are fine, they don't exactly run too well. Specifically, they have difficulty traversing the turnouts, almost like the wheel sets are not as wide as they should be. I don't have an N-gauge for the inside track dimension to check the wheel accuracy, but there is more side to side movement than the Kato's and Altas diesels I run. Before I shell out some $$ on this one, does anyone have any experiences with this exact diesel or the GP60 models that LifeLike makes?
