Narrow Gauge Track On Model Railroads

Narrow gauge equipment maintains the scale, but runs on a smaller gauge of track. Narrow gauge track is seldom used on main line railroads. Narrow Gauge track was generally laid in areas where rail traffic was light, curves may have needed to be tight, and cost was a major issue. Most popular in mining spurs, logging spurs, and scenic tourist rails where low speeds were usual.
