(...) First I'd like to say that is an absolutely impressive display. Just breath-taking. I love all the details in each area. There are just too many wonderful MOC's to start commenting on them all. Congratulations on a job well done. That said, (...) (23 years ago, 1-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains)

(...) You're both right. In built up areas the rails are attached directly to concrete (very unprototypical) and in countryside settings, they rest on ties as you describe, But the ties are offscale, too large and too widely spaced. Frank's (...) (23 years ago, 1-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains)

My recollection of the trains at LEGOLAND California was that the gauge was larger than No. 1. I also remember the rail looking like rectangular aluminum stock with much of it fastened in concrete, although some of the "country" scenes had ties, as (...) (23 years ago, 1-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hmmmm..... I don't have the magazine with me at work today but I recall the pictures I saw, had what looked like aluminium (or nickel) rails with wood ties. There definately were ties set in what looked like gravel/dirt. I don't remember off (...) (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.trains)
