Live Steam Article on Modeling Scales

Post by FKreider »

I seem to remember reading an article that went over some nuances of different scale factors for narrow gauge engines modeled in (I think) 2" or 2.5" or 2.6" and running on 7.5" gauge track.

I cant remember the details but I remember reading the article some time ago. Looking through the last few years of issues I cant find the article and I also didn't have any luck with the online article index either.

Does anyone know of the article that I am thinking of and what year/issue I can find it in?

March/April 2019 Live Steam has an article by Dennis Larrick titled 'Why Two-Inch Scale'.
In it he compares 2" scale models to 2.5" scale models.
Could this be the article you're looking for?
