@DJRail3751 well actually Bob doesnt own any 1" scale. the Rio Grande stuff is 1 1/2" narrow guage... he doesnt bring it down too often tho. he usually only brings it down when i bug him enough, however, he should have the whole fleet out at the spring meet and the small guage meet
Actually the longer route is 3/4 mile long but all of it put together is over a 1-1/4 miles atleast. It takes about 7 minutes at 1.5 miles per hour, which is a scale speed for a frieght in 1.5" narrow gauge of 12 mph.
@chappybolo perfect! altho ive been told when it somes to running some trains at r club i run at a scale 700 mph. haha the clubs american is now the shin con zen or watever the japs say
Well I doubt 700 scale mph, because you'd have have to be going 87.5 mph real speed for it to scale that far down in 1/8th scale. My atlantic can easily hit 22 mph and in 3/4" scale that is 244 mph, but you'd have to challenge T Downing to see a 1:4.8th scale "Fornicator" do 700mph
@chappybolo haah ive been on his forney with him and riverside and ocme and boy that guy can run a train! He'll be down like to 20 pounds and still be taingon 2 percent grades and never stop to gain pressure or anything. pretty fun at riverdie tho except for the birds dive bombing us at like 12 at night
@DJRail3751 well since he has passed away im not sure who the locomotive went to.... i think it went to his family. so most likely not

Tiny but mighty! Please recommend a good turn that trains could easily go on! (I'm planning on building a 1 1/2 scale layout.)
