  Lego Trains in larger gauge?
 
Hello, has anyone ever tried to build a train that has a larger gauge than the usual L-scale (be it 6, 8, or even more studs wide)? Obviously, such trains could not run on LEGO track, nor use standard LEGO train motors and wheel sets ... Greetings (...) (21 years ago, 5-May-03, to lugnet.trains)

Besides, given that my whole layout seems to be elevated 18 bricks high, it's (...) (21 years ago, 5-May-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.trains)
