Wish we had more Bob Weavers in the existing companies. The O hobby today, has a void of Fallen Flags and real car variety offerings that was his specialty. His layout and car selection were spot on!

During the mid 90s. OGR had it's own line of video magazines, like TMs Toy Trains Revue.

This is a great RR, but O guage is three rail. O scale is two rail.🎉🎉

The word “gauge” is badly misunderstood by many in the hobby. “Gauge” simply defines the distance between the rails. However, in the hobby, the words _“gauge”_ and _“scale”_ are often used interchangeably. It’s not correct, but it has become common usage. So this is an _“O gauge”_ layout because the distance between the rails is correct for O scale/gauge.

@@OGRKZread Three rail O gauge is toy trains. Two O gauge is scale model railroading. That is simple to understand.

@@MartinSBrown-tp9ji No, it’s not that simple. There are many very accurate *scale* model railroads that use 3-rail track. These modelers use Kadee couplers and run highly detailed, scale-size equipment on 3-rail track. *”SCALE”* refers to the *SIZE* of the model. Anything modeled at 1/48 real size is “*O Scale”* no matter whether it is 2-rail or 3-rail track. *”GAUGE”* is nothing more than the distance between the rails.
