Of course that is no problem if you are just running trains, but if the website (like Masterpiece models) is mentioning "Our objective is simply to produce the most accurate model possible " using a wrong gauge/scale combination seems a bit odd.
It does seem odd, doesn't it? I vote for 17/64 scale for the upper end models. Proto-48 is the most accurate, of course, but beyond my track laying skills.

My first question is: How many of these UPPER END models do you buy? If the answer is ZERO, then why do you care????? O Scale has been 1/48 and 1.25" gauge for years.

Even the P48 modelers use 1/48 above the wheels, so it looks like it's just you in for the 17/64.

GOOD LUCK!
