>  Which statement makes me wonder if anyone in Oz models broad gauge
to scale?

I replied to this, but just realised that it was by email, rather than
to the newsgroup.  I know of some modelling BG.

4mm scale, 21mm gauge is in use by at least two people, one is building
to the 21mm gauge equivalent of P4.  Another I know is modelling in
3.5mm/foot, but using P87 standards with a gauge of 18.4mm.  I have
heard of modellers using HO scale and EM gauge track, which at 18.2mm
is pretty close, but don't know any of these people personally.

Of course, those modelling in 1/4" scale and using 32mm gauge track
are closer to BG than they are to SG.  :-)
