60' Diner in O-27 streamline consist

coach joeOGR Forum Member DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER

Due to restrictions in layout size and track radii I have to stick to Madison cars and O-27 streamliners for passenger cars. I have an MTH Railking Empire State Express 4 car streamline set. I was thinking about adding a Weaver aluminum 60' diner to the consist. Does anyone know the minimum radius required for Weaver 60' streamline cars and do you think the diner would go with the railking cars?

Just a guess here Joe but I suspect the Weaver car is scale size even though it represents a shorter car. That means scale in height and width. The Railking cars are probably undersize in those same dimensions so the Weaver will look out of place. I have an Atlas 60' car that fits right in with scale cars.
