Hey John, ABSOL. BEAUTIFUL! "you must have hit her pretty close to the mark to get`em all riled up like that!" :) 3 rail rules! *Don`t let`em kid ya, "they clean their track daily...Dust and tiny particulates are their undoing! ...Us? "we see a spider on the rails, and we MASH`em"!, never stopping, and spank`em all the harder!!
How much does it matter wether its 2 or 3 rail? If you run the same exact engine that is a perfect match to O scale (1:48? I think?) on 2 rail and a copy of it on 3 rail...what's the difference?
Impressive empire you have there! May I suggest you post this kind of thing not as O SCALE, which it isn't, but as O THREE_RAIL or O TOY TRAIN? Keep on runnin'!
that's one of the best 3-rail attempts to posing as 2-rail I've ever seen. I didn't start to wonder until I saw those sharp curves in the beginning, then I looked for the middle rail. Very well done that I didn't notice it right away.
Wow

What rail in the middle? :) We prefer to think of it as Hi-Rail - if it's 1:48, it's O-Scale

never saw three rails on the prototype. that stupid rail in the middle just ruins it.
three rail is toy trains and 2 rail is scale models.

Sorry but you do not know the difference between Scale and Gauge.

You just stated the difference. Did you have to ask? There is nothing scale about 3 rail. The correct term is GAUGE. Nice Train Set.
