Reply to "60" Radius and 64" radius clearance test"

TT,

The NMRA standards are greater than what you are allowing but I haven't checked them recently.

When I designed my curves, I eased the outer track out an extra 3/8" so I have 4 3/8" centers on curves.  I did this on all curves less than or equal to 72"R.  On wider curves, 78"R and 82"R, I did not enlarge the center-to-center distance.  I call the extra 3/8" "peace of mind".
