Ah, you put on a compelling argument, Oskar. However, how did you operate live steam locomotives when your were nine if you weren't even a member of LALS? I highly doubt any engineer would let a member of the public operate their engine. I know I wouldn't!

and yes I can tell the difference

Rail systems, and yes I'm sure. And I know scales like the back of my hand alex, I've been running steam since I was 9. Trust this, I know

[AODProds]

How do you know it's 1.6" scale? Your golden rule you just mentioned defies the scale you mentioned before you mentioned the rule. You don't know the builder. You've never seen the actual engine. The minimal differences between 1.5" scale and 1.6" scale make it almost impossible to tell if it is one or the other. Keep in mind this was shot many years before you joined.

1.6" scale, when i dont know, i usually say 1-1/2" scale, cause that covers everything up to 1.7

[AODProds]

At 6:24, you can see a 1.5" scale ALCO PA. Very rare. I love ALCO PA's. Great footage!
