(...) Touché;) The only problem with 1 stud equaling 1.25 feet is that standard track gauge in North America is 4 feet 8.5 inches, and the gauge of our track is almost 5 studs, which would translate in a gauge of about 6'!! By rights we *should* be (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Absolutely. 16 wide is ridiculously wide for LEGO track gauge; it would have to be on G scale gauge. Now Frank, there is no law (yet;) that says one only must build in one scale-- I build a little in minifig (for the GMLTC layout), mostly in (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

I checked when I was at LL CA and I am positive that they are 16 studs. LL CA uses a different kind of track than LL Windsor or Billund, I believe and so the scales of one LL train might not match up with another LL train. I personally will not go (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Ahh, it appears that the different LLs are using different scales-- from 16-20 studs wide. I think I will stick to around 14 wide because I am going to use G scale wheels (and track, for that matter) and that width (13-14 studs) is about (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
