The minimum track spacing can be derived from the loading gauge. The European Berne Gauge has a width of 3,150 mm (10 ft 4 in). The minimal distance to structures on the side of the track is half of it but that is doubled again for double track lines.
Feb 23, 2018 · In the top center, a piece of straight track fits on a 16x16 stud square baseplate, with a 4-stud margin on either side. On the top right, a 180-degree turn of 8 curved tracks is the same width as three 32x32 stud (10"x10" or 25.4x25.4cm) baseplates, but we need an extra 16 studs vertically to completely cover the ends of the turn.
Feb 25, 2020 · It depends on the radius of the curve, the width of the car and the distance between the bogie pivots and the ends of the car (on the inner track) and the distance between the bogie pivots on the outer track. There is no real hard and fast rule for all stock on all track.

Oct 23, 2022 · Track width and track spacing. The track width is measured between the rail heads 14 mm below the top of the rail. In tight curves (less than 200 m radii), the track width is increased by 10 – 30 mm, the so-called track width supplement. The track spacing is the c/c distance between two tracks.
Jan 15, 2023 · TJ Tracker John OGR Forum Member SUPPORTING MEMBER DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER. When the first RailKing BigBoy came out, I determined that 5.5" was the minimum track spacing for small tinplate curves I measured it on (O31, O42 and O54). My club's O72 modules have 4.25" centers on straights but our curves are not concentric.
Mar 19, 2018 · The only standard is the gauge. Everything else, from rail height to tie height, to tie width, to tie length, to tie centre separation, tie colour...it depends on the make. Atlas code 100 track ties are 1 1/8" and Midwest cork when laid is a shade under 2".
