Our Track
Gage is 7 1/2" and the scale is 1 1/2" and 2 1/2". It is interesting to
note that everything for the layout is done on site; bending tracks for 50 foot minium radius
turns, and all the ties (recycled plastic...1 1/2" x 1 1/2") are cut and routed individually. (The track has
a tie about every 4-6 inches).
