 | | G scale lego trains —Ben Fleskes
|
| | | A search of lugnet trains didn't get far so and excuse me if this has been discussed before. What scale have people used when building G scale trains? I understand the following are common: 1:32 1:29 1:22.5 All of which run on the same size G scale (...) (23 years ago, 31-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)

| | | | | | (...) John Neal might be off-line for a few days, he's attending a wedding this weekend. Otherwise, I'm SURE we'd hear him chirp up on this subject!
