Reply to "running 2 rail cars on three rail track"

@Robbin posted:

I have minimum O72 curves and switches with larger radii on many curves.  Is it possible to run both freight cars (40' to 50') and scale length passenger cars that are two rail (body attached couplers) on my three rail track?  Anyone doing this?  Seems like the freight cars would be more possible.

Thanks!

It is imperative to check the clearance of underbody details when running on three rail curves.  If you have 3rd Rail heavyweight cars, the 60' baggage cars are probably the ones which are most suseptable to damage or derailing in tight diameter curves.  John
