----- Original Message ----- . . . . I am trying to find out the distance from the top off the rail to the vertical clearance point in S scale, (to prevent S scale equipment hitting the overbridge!). > > > > > > > It depends on what you're modelling. As just one example, the rail tunnel between Detroit Mich and Windsor Ontario can take double-stacked well cars only if both containers are 8� ft high. If either of two double-stacked containers is of the 9� ft height type, it does not go. One 9� ft container by itself is OK, of course.
All that doesn't give you any numbers though, does it? From the Car & Locomotivre Cyclopedia of 1984 - Plate B max headroom is 15 ft 1 in Plate C is 15 ft 6 in Plate E 1is 15ft 9 in Plate F 17 ft.
