As a general question, are these kits designed such that you can "adjust" the number of degrees from stall to stall for lengthening the amount of track between the doors of the roundhouse to the turntable pit?   

I'd like to assemble one that provides at least 125-135 scaled feet (about 2.6 to 2.8 feet).  

The rough dimensions are 32" from the front of the round house to the center of the turntable.   if you use a 34"turntable you will only have about 15" from the front to the pit.   To  be able to set the round house further back from the pit you would have to cut down the back walls.    I am not sure how much shorter they would have to be to get the distance you want.  You would have to do the math to figure out the width of the back wall sections.  If you look at the back walls you would have to cut some of the brick either from each side or cut out the brick from between some of the windows then glue the walls back together.    You can contact me by my email listed here so we can get phone numbers and set up a time to do some of the figuring by phone.
