<P mce_keep="true">[quote user="CSSHEGEWISCH"] <P>The current wallpaper I have on my computer shows rush hour at Melbourne Southern Cross with three trains waiting for departure behind V/Line N-class locomotives. Victoria uses a gauge of 5'3" and I see no appreciable differences in scale between standard gauge and broad gauge equipment.</P> <P>[/quote]</P> <P><FONT face=verdana,geneva>There does not necessariliy have to be a difference in size betwen the components of two rail systems of different gages. It's just that increasing the size of equipment ulitmatley requires increasing the gage.</FONT> </P>
