Yes John I think you're right about the rails. I've got pictures of NZ bu***ramway locos working on wooden rails and I think it was fairly commonplace to use wood for temporary tracks that were laid into cutting areas rather than steel rails. Most lokeys (and they were nearly always geared locos) that worked on the wooden tramways had very wide rims on their wheels to spread the load. <br />I wonder if wooden rails would be practical in 'G' scale? Could be fun to try it out. <br /> <br />Annie
