At the moment there are two LEGO scale trains, the six-wide and the
eight-wide. Someone is working on a third scale, 14-wide. Current opions are
that both scales are perfectly valid. Each size has its advantages and
disadvangtages. But talking about six-wide vs eight-wide is a great way to
start a good-natured fight about which is right.

When I said steer maybe I should have said guide.
