QUOTE: If proto48 is rarley used, it is only because O-scale modelers are not very common; but it is the normal American O-scale gauge and the exact-gauge successor to Q, which used 1 3/16 inch. Can we avoid using pejorative terms like "rivet counter" here?

QUOTE: Originally posted by Mystic Storm I've always considered O scale as 2 rail and O gauge as 3 rail. That's the difference. People in O scale also like to refer to themselves as hi-railers. Some folks refer to them as rivet counters.[:D]
