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
right for that scale (1:22.5 to around 1:32), according to my feeble-minded
calculations....
BTW, James, are you the garden railroader? Someone here is....I need an expert
opinion!
