<p>Perhaps a look at the CSX Standard Specification for the Design and Construction of Private Sidetracks may help: <a href="https://www.csx.com/index.cfm/library/files/customers/industrial-development/site-design-guidelines-and-specifications/">https://www.csx.com/index.cfm/library/files/customers/industrial-development/site-design-guidelines-and-specifications/</a></p> <p>Table 2 on page 14 shows the main requirements. Minimum length between two reverse curves is 100 ft.</p> <p>I must admit that I haven't searched the standard for any railcar limitations.</p> <p>Each railroad has its own specifications.<br />Regards, Volker</p>
