Pickup is in the center. Depends on what you mean by standard HO track.

You might have problems with wheel flanges here and there and I am not sure if they do well on shorter track such as code 83 and smaller. I have one Marklin Steam that seems to do well that I am planning to convert to DCC.
I do know that a layout that I was asked to help convert to a small museum layout was too tight of radius’s for a regular HO engine and cars to work on. We had to shallow out all the curves for regular HO to work on it. So I say yes it should work well on HO track as the turn radius is usually shallower. But watch the rail height. from Newman
