I have the UP Excursion set (six cars) from last year, plus the diner, theater car, and a two-car expansion set. These are the ones with the "tube" style diaphragms. I've been thinking of mounting Kadees on them, but I'm curious about the curves they'll require. We have a Gargraves 36" radius (O-72) hidden curve in the club layout, but everything else (including a bypass) are 48" radius (O-96).
Any recommendations as to whether I should use Kadee standard-shank or long-shank couplers?
Do the "tubes" extend out any farther than the striker plate diaphragms Matt?

No. They're about half the thickness.
