Minimum Radius

[Porcy Mane]

What have they done with the sound of Sidney's polymer fabric experiments?
Are P4 modellers The Men and Women in the White Suits?

That's the original 78 rpm long play version.

So was it written before the film?

What? You don't recognise a record made by Jack Parnell & his popular beat combo (using Mary Habberfields sound effects).

Released in 1951, same year as the film in both voiced and instrumental versions and produced by George Martin (who else!).

"You’re my electronic tonic, absolutely supersonic,
little cathode ray, oh say you find me quite cute.

Formaldehydee, Formaldehoe,
Let’s get down to bismuth, make my mouth H2O.
Honey, bunson, midas, you hear, I feel awful litmus blue dear,
come and dance with me the samba of the white suit."

Don't ask me how I know all of this crap. I be far happier if I could remember something useful, like what's the formula to find the Radii of an Ellipse.

So back to minimum curves...

So back to minimum curves...

The BR wagon diagram books for short wheelbase wagons, i.e. those with 9' and 10' wheelbases quote the official minimum radius as 1 chain (66') which equates to 10.4 " or 264mm. So less than most would perhaps expect, however, whether this was coupled, I rather doubt.

Oh good. I'm well within limits then
