[modeleng] Re: Track guage

In a perfect world I would prefer 3.5"ga, for all the usual reasons, and the 
fact that there were (are) so many attractive designs and castings available 
for 3.5"ga.  I have always been perplexed though by why there was never a 57XX 
Pannier design published in 3.5"ga, condsidering the popularity of both the 
locomotive and the gauge.

However, in the imperfect world in which I live the only track facilities 
anywhere within reasonable driving distance are 7.5"ga., hence my current 
project is 7.5"ga.  Whether that one will ever be followed by another in 7.5"ga 
I don't know, the next one will be in 3.5"ga and I'll worry about where to run 
it when the time comes.

Cheers,
Harry
