Just multiply by 87.1, and divide by twelve. That means 160 and 174 foot radius in real life. I once saw an industrial track that looked like had a ridiculously tight radius. I went on to google earth and measured the actual radius to be something like 350 feet. That equates to about a 48" radius in HO scale!
