I dont mean to be facetious but this should be the right group for
modelling the L&B. O-16.5 is too wide a guage for modelling such a
beautiful railway.

All,
As a new chum to this group, currently not modelling in O-14mm, but

Re: [O-14] Track Gauges
Ian,
Track Gauges for 14mm are available from Roy Link, an etched brass
version which is also a back to back gauge etc.
http://www.paragonnarrowgauge.co.uk/ now seem to handle these for Roy.

Info wanted on rail dimensions
Hi
Forgive the cross post for those who are also members of the 7mmnga
group.
I am trying to find out the rail dimensions for the various rail
sections in common use between codes 55-100.

Re: [O-14] Info wanted on rail dimensions
The Peco IL-115 rail (code 82) is as follows:
Foot - 1.77mm
Head - 0.89mm
Height - 2.08mm
I chose this rail for use with the RCL 14mm gauge components as, unlike other sizes, it is an exceptionally

Hi list:
FYI, a member of the South African Railways modelling list has expressed interest in

Rail Dimension Info Required
Hi
I am doing some research into suitable rail for representing NG track
in the smaller weights which equate to code # ranges 40-100. I have

Re: [O-14] Re: Rail Dimension Info Required
John,
I have ME code 55 and code 70 rail at home, but nothing other than
calipers to measure with. I could get rail head width and base width,
but the web might be tricky.
I am interested in why

Re: Rail Dimension Info Required
Hi John
Head and base width would be useful if you can get reasonably accurate
measurements (e.g. to 0.1 mm)
This is part of my research into what model rail is available in the
marketplace and

Re: [O-14] Re: Rail Dimension Info Required

Seems like an interesting article (or series), getting down to such

I measured my Micro-Engineering rail, although my digital calipers
don't seem to be accurate,
