I am in the process of fitting Bachman MK2 couplers with NEM pockets to some wagons so that they can be fitted with the Brian Kirby magnetic uncoupler.

This is an opportunity to decrease the distance between wagons by adjusting the position of the new pockets.

I realise the minimum distance may be related to minimum diameter of curves as this is where the buffers may interlock. Most curves on my layout are >60cm radius but a couple are 50-55cm.

Can anyone give me an idea of the minimum clearance that is required between wagons? This will cut down on the amount of experimentation needed.

Thanks
