You wanr to say cars can turn 90° on the spot? Unless you are an Ukrainian farmer, no - your car is not a tank.
No, I’m saying there’s a huge difference between a 15 foot turning radius and a 400 foot turning radius. Trying to put trains in the existing 50 foot x 50 foot road intersections is not going to work without moving a lot of buildings.
Sounds like a forklift. Double for cars, or triple for speeders and idiots.
20 meters at most. 71-931 has 20, and it’s HUGE. Or 65 units of imperialism.
