In planning stage of new yard and expansion.  Hope to create as smooth access/exit as possible for big steamers and long frame diesels in their new yard (as compared to the my old yards with #4 turnouts). Will the #6s be just as good as #8s.  Do they save a little space because of shorter length? I see they will give me a little more length in the sidings because of the larger/sharper radius spur  or should I stick with #8s everywhere?
