Years back I was headed for that size. my wife wants to know if you own the cars pictured. Are those,I think they called the scale 1&1/2" where the tracks are spaced 7&1/2" apart? Real nice.

Alan,

Yes, the Erie caboose is mine. You are correct, it is 1 1/2" scale with a gauge of 7 1/2". The one advantage of this scale is that it is much tougher to be a hoarder with dozens (or hundreds for some of us) of engines and cars. And there really is no "under layout" storage space. Although, dead rail is the norm and track cleaning usually involves removing branches (or trees).

The Santa Fe engines previously posted are the same scale, but do not belong to me.
