Cool Ralph, LOTS of pics please, I always thought that if Gauge 3 was still commercially available it could have been used for standard gauge trains along with 1/22.5, so 63.5mm in 1/22.6 sounds is so close as to negligable differences, the old REAL Buddy L trains are Guage 3 if my memory serves me right.
Dear Mr vsmith - affordable Gauge 3 is having a real renaissance, thanks to the efforts of Garden Railway Specialists of Princes Risborough. They currently list six Gauge 3 locomotives in live-steam and electric, a selection of coaches, and over one hundred goods wagons of all types. There are GWR railcars, auto-coaches and a 'bubble-car' too - a single unit motorised coach a bit like a small doodlebug.
