The term "gauge" when referring to trains, is the distance between the rails. The term "scale" refers to the proportion of one item to the original. A 1:24 scale is common for plastic model cars. Model Train "HO" scale is 1:87.1. That means it's 1/87th the size of a real train.

Glad I could bring it closer to you.

This song is called: "Southbound".

[@salemcripple]

hmmm. when you say 15" gauge, are you referring to the piston diameter, or the track width? Because i looked it up, the track width for a full scale train is 56 inches. Sorry, i'm not familiar with scale trains. I know that scale steam powered traction engines are measured in piston size. thank you for the reply!

[@rwundrock]

It could be a possibility. However, the day I taped this was the first time I was ever there.

[@salemcripple]

that's pretty cool. What is it a half scale?

[@fireutility21]

@salemcripple not intriely certian my father and i were disscussing it and figured that 15" gague trains are any where between 1/4th scale and 1/3 scale

[@rwundrock]

The music I used was included with my Pinnacle video editing software.

[@rwundrock]

Not certain on the scale, but it's 15" gauge.

[@rwundrock]

@HighIronofWisconsin Thanks. I stand corrected.

[@salemcripple]

ok, thank you.

The first minute and 8 seconds is ruined because of the crappy music.
