Bill,
Is this story in the SLD-sig library? Yes, I agree, some type of
gate is a must for both ends. Rerailers are a good idea, wonder if
they are available for code 83? I'm using Walthers turnouts and Atlas
flex track(which don't match by the way). Just checked my right track
software, they have them. Getting power to the cassette is an issue,
since I will move locomotives on and off with them. Sure, I would
love to leave room for 50' cars, I just don't have it. I am stuck
with 15" radius curves, #4 turnouts and short sidings. But it beats
no layout at all! Thanks for the reply.

Maurice the re is an on line story showing a train length turntable
with
flip down handles that keep the cars from rolling off the track when
turning. May want to consider such an addition to the cassettes so
that the
cars will stay on board. Make a rerailer part of each end of the
cassette
and the on line portion of the connection. Presume that power on the
cassette is not an issue. Sure you don't want to leave room for 50'
cars?
The extra 3" in HO will allow for variety.
