It seems that most of the info is already in. I don’t care about a few seconds difference for recordings, so I will close this issue for now.

IIRC, “A Reel Dram” is a cassette tape so the notion of when a track starts and ends is less concrete than with CDs. (With CDs, we tend to go with what it says on the CD booklet, and that may or may not be closely related to the actual length of the sound wave on the CD. This is particularly obvious, e.g., with the RSCDS CD for Book 48, which has unusually long silent lead-out times on some tracks, and that messes up the pace calculations.)
