Atlas CZ cars coupled distance (Photos added)

 

 

I didn't want to cause thread-drift on the other CZ thread so I thought I'd start my own.  I love these cars but I'm not happy with how far apart they are when coupled.  I know that Atlas is tasked with conflicting preferences here i.e. those who don't mind their hypothetical passengers being able to easily view the outside rail while going thru a 45° curve and those who do not.  As I consider myself to be part of the latter, I was wondering if anyone has any tips on modifications to more accurately represent prototypically correct spacing.  I'll also be looking into changing to a different diaphragm, one that is flexible enough to remain in contact while running thru curves similar to the black rubber diaphragms used on earlier Key E and F units though I think the CZ cars would probably have to be silver.  Thanks in advance for any info that is offered.
