http://www.morop.org/en/normes/nem103_en.pdf You can then use this table to determine the spacing between tracks. Remember, the distance between tracks on curved sections must be greater than on straight sections. http://www.morop.org/en/normes/nem112_en.pdf These measurements are the minimum allowed. It is normal to have a slightly wider space between sidings and main lines to allow railway workers to walk safely. Quote:

It is unusual that a beginner to model railways should be asking about fouling points. Do you work for the railways by any chance? ***** The measurements in the tables are for European model railways such as Fleischmann. If you decide that you are going to use North American trains you must use the measurements in these tables as the trains are usually much bigger. http://www.nmra.org/standards/consist.html#standards***** Hope this helps you.
