OK John.   You got us off of our ivory towers.   You had to go and get practical.  

Good analysis.  Much more helpful to the OP.

Which is why in my first response (in spite of my bad math) I suggested to the OP to get a couple of used O scale cars to poke and prod at.  You can do all the good math you want, but nothing beats holding something in all 3 dimensions to really get a feel for it. 

He mentioned about being drawn to Proto:48 and not into the toy aspect of O.  That makes any discussion about what's in Atlas (Do they even offer 2-rail scale sets anymore?) and LionChief train sets, or any 3-rail track system useless banter.  I don't think there anything in the Ready-To-Run O Scale world that's Proto:48.
