I tried but I had to exaggerate it in N scale to make it noticeable and then it seemed a bit... exaggerated.

That track is in very good condition for a branch line or shortline. You guys ought to get out trackside a little more. More than three-quarters of the ties are still holding spikes and the ballast is clean and deep. It would likely be good for 25 mph if it didn't fall under yard limit operating rules or require a long back-up move in one direction.
