Kadees on 80' cars will work fine. I have used them on 80' cars on staging-track curves as tight as 33" radius. I use the following spacing for double track: Mainline straight track: 2-7/16" (13 feet) Yard tracks: 3" (so I can get my fingers in between adjacent cars) 54" curves (and larger): 3" 45"-54": 3-1/4" 38"-45": 3-1/2" 33"-38": 3-3/4" Less than 33": I don't construct any this tight. I have never had any trouble using these figures. Dick Karnes To REPLY to the list, use REPLY ALL; to reply to the sender, use REPLY.
