Dear List Members,
Though I recognize that this list is predominantly UK oriented, some
of you may be interested in the webpages I have posted detailing in
brief the history of Gauge 3 in the US as well as photos of what I
myself have built in Gauge 3. You may view it here:
http://www.cumberlandmodelengineering.com/Gauge3History.html
http://www.cumberlandmodelengineering.com/Gauge3models.html
The Gauge 3 history page will have some more photographs added to it
in the future; but in the meantime, there you have it. Also, check out
the current issue of Narrow Gauge & Shortline Gazette for its
extensive article on Victor Shattock and his Gauge 3 basement
railroad from the 1930s. Imagine a basement filled with alcohol
burning 1/2" scale Southern Pacific locomotives!
Cheers,
Dave in the USA
