(...) Big...and reliable! I go primarily by track gauge, which at 37.66mm is as near to 8mm:1ft or 1 stud:1ft as 16.5mm track is to the HO scale of 3.5mm:1ft. The British loading gauge is smaller than the US one. The maximum width (of the W6 gauge (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Purists please skip this post as it involves non-LEGO sensors.

(...) <snip> Very nice, Mark. Big! :-d~~ I have a question about the scale. It appears to be 8 wide, which would imply to me to be more like 6.4mm:1ft. Are you going solely by track gauge for scaling, or width of the loco? I would guess that that (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
