John; Roger Hensley has a good suggestion above, but I'm interested in what minimum radius he operates on....Roger.. ? Trouble is, when you want to do it on 24" radius (HO)you have a problem. Full length passenger cars just aren't meant for small radii. They don't look good, even when they can be coaxed around them. Shortening up the coupling distance for diaphragm-fitting purposes isn't possible on small radius curves. So without wishing to be the Devil's Advocate, I don't think nicely fitting diaphragms are possible on 24" radius curves , unless you drop back to 'Harriman-length' cars of the 60-odd foot long variety...Regards / Mike
