I have 86' boxcars and 85' flats going through the 10 or 12 #4 turnouts in my yard (along with numerous 6 axle diesels) with no problems. The trick is to make sure everything is very flat and smooth. Also, because it is a yard, speed is down. I used #4's because of space limitations. I would have liked to sue #6's, but we all have to compromise.
