GAUGE 1 RAILROAD
The most recent addition to our club is a gauge one track (45 mm between the rails, or 1.7717 inches). This gauge has become popular with garden railroad enthusiasts in recent years. Although the trains are too small to ride on, many of them do run on steam! Some steamers use radio control to operate the controls in the cab. At least one of our tracks is electrified to run track powered electric trains.
