You might, for example,
have a 15 degree curve on a 4 track mainline. All 4 tracks will curve 15 degrees but the radius will vary from
teack to track.


That is not what most railway engineers would understand to be
the meaning when you say "15 degree curve". What you are really
talking about is a curve with "15 degrees of included angle"
or "15 degrees total angle".
