Differences between the track gauges for 7 1/2 inch scale

Post by Trainman4602 »

Here is a video on the different track gauges for 1 1/2 scale. As most know there are two gauges here in the USA. 7 1/4 and 7 1/2 gauges. With the help from Nick Ewards and Robert Hornsby from Texas I have developed a frog that will be able to pass both gauges through it with no problem.
Here is part one explaining how we got to have two gauges in this country.
In part two I show the frog and how it works.
