That looks AWESOME! Just out of curiosity what size curves will the modified cars fit on?

Zach, I don't have any 054 but do have an 042. The cars will do 042 except in my case they hit a switch lantern located inside the curve. Otherwise the trucks can swivel far enough and the couplers do their job and open up. The cars are not close to hitting each other. On 042 over half the body is past the inside rail.

Bottom line this mod doesn't affect minimum diameter at all.

That’s very interesting to hear. Makes one wonder why they left such a gap. One last question I saw some of your work inside they car and thought it was amazing. I’ve wanted to do something along those lines but was a little scared. Where did you find flooring and the little top for the seats?
