For the full range of speed from the locomotive, turn the throttle to 18 volts. You can use less; it will just limit the top speed of the loco.

The curve radius in the set seems to be 36"

Actually the curve radius is 18" the diameter is 36".  All recent starter sets use 36" diameter 45 degree curves.
