The prototype I hope to model carried passengers and freight from rural southern Ohio to the city of Cincinnati. For several miles the city trolly cars shared tracks with the CG&P. There were three rails one that both types of cars used, a rail for the trollys 30 inches away and a third rail beyond that to accomidate the standard gauge cars. At one time this may have been common but I found it surprising and would like to include it in my layout. My question is is there commercialy avalable track that would allow me to model this or would I have to scratch build the triple rail track? <br /> <br />This layout is still some time from going into construction so I have not decided on HO or N. Any suggestions on which scale has a better selection of trolly and narrow gauge units? <br /> <br />
