Rob: at 15" radius, you might have to go for a longer Kadee. They make variants that fit the #5 boxes but are longer.
Also check the heights against the Kadee gauge.
Look for couplers that are not mounted level -- they change height as they are pulled out.
Do you have any abrupt grade changes? Long cars can unhook on these.
