alton6 queries: <br /> <br />"How much is added to a car for drawbars, couplers, etc. to be able to figure the total length of a consist?" <br /> <br />It'll vary. I don't have any data close at hand, but it's probably about four feet or so for cars with normal drawbars; cars with cushion underframes or end-of-car cushioning will, of course, be much longer. <br /> <br />Old Timer
