@MELGAR posted:If you're willing to have symmetry but not perfect concentricity, just insert four short lengths (say four or five inches) of straight track into the outer O-80 circle every 90-degrees apart. That will move the outer track further away from the O-72 circle. Try it and see if you think it's satisfactory.

Thanks for suggestion, I added a straight track section on the outside curve. This seems to fix the issue.
It allows for more than enough spacing - about 5" between tracks. As others have said there are some edge cases. I run mostly steam era but want room to expand into large locos one day such as the MTH premier big boy.
