Andy,
     That's the scale gets bandied about a lot these days.  It's actually
1.5929" although it really doesn't matter a lot to me, and wouldn't at all
if I were contemplating a US loco, but because vintage British locos tend
to be smaller in comparison to US locos I figure any such model would
benefit from a bit more size.

Harry
