At the back of this months Model Rail I noted an advert for Bahnhof
Europa 1:450 scale 'T' gauge.

I think this is going a little too far !

The detail IS very good and the motor must be the size of one of those
Tick Tack sweets but you need a good pair of glass's to view them.

And God help you if you have a derailment and have to try to get the bloody
things back on the track!

John,

I have bought a whole lot of this gauge, sold ALL of my N-Gauge, which
suddenly seems HUGE, and am looking forward to creating the layout I have
always wanted, with all its features, but have always lacked the space.
I would suggest to anyone to have a close look, ('cos you won't see anything
if you don't!! LOL), and if you have an 0-Gauge or 00/H0 layout you could
find space for a model village with working trains. Just a thought.

The T-Gauge scene is growing ALL the time. The trains, track, buildings and
accessories are still small, but the customer base IS getting bigger. I'd
suggest a visit to the link
http://www.t-gauge.net/forum3/index.php   or my blog
http://itistimefortat1450.blogspot.com/ to get some idea of what can be done
in the scale of 1:450. I AM NOT at the top of the pile on this scale, maybe
middling, but there is some really great work being carried out all over the
world. And I do believe that the first T-Gauge club has been formed on Vulcan,
special bonus is T'Pol is the membership secretary!! :-))

So, John, maybe another look at us real nutters, and see if you are mad
enough to join exploring the limits, eh?
