- Curve-radius: 80m in prototype = 919mm in HO
- Curve-length: 18m in prototype = 206,8mm in HO
- Super-elevation (Überhöhung): 0,7mm > 0,639mm in HO (= 55,625mm in prototype) for speeds up to 25km/h. This is calculated by the ΟΣΕ-standard-formula: h = 7,12* (V^2/R). The superelevation starts gradually from the start of the curve, from 0,2mm and then goes to 0,7mm. The difference of 0,039mm +, means that I the elevation is a little more (περίσσεια υπερύψωσης), and and the trains can create a bit more speed on the curve.


This is the minimum-radius, which will be used for the operation of sprung-screw-couplers with the sprung-buffers, according to the prototype.
