Hey, gang,
On a 35' minimum radius, 7-1/2" gauge track, what is the longest ridgid wheelbase that can be used for a two axle car? I know that, sooner or later, you reack a point where the flanges won't wrap themselves around a curve. I'm just not sure where that point is.

Thanks and best regards,
Greg B.

Bill Gardei's web site has a calculator on figuring wheelbase to radi traveled.
