I understand the difference between Gauge3 (scenic railway) and 2
1/2" gauge (model steam locomotives), but is there a difference
in "standard" between the two - ie if I were to build to Gauge3
standard would I be also able to use it as a loco to ride behind? and
vice verse? I know how passionate people can get about scales and
gauges, so I hesitate before asking... but it seems silly for the
gauge that is hardly the most thriving to have this division. Or am I
missing something obvious?
And now I'll go back to the workshop ;-) and be quiet.
