Scale and Gauge: ⅞″n2

My chosen combination, 7/8"n2 (7/8":1' or 1:13.7 scale model of 2' gauge), not only has heft and presence, but allows for an accurate representation of 2' gauge using commercially available wheel sets for 45 mm gauge (in common with Gauge 1, IIm, G and Fn3), and scale rail sizes to represent very light rails of 12 lbs/yd and 25 lbs/yd.   [Strictly the gauge is 1 ¾", or 44.45 mm, however in practice wheel sets and mechanisms are interchangeable with 45 mm gauge.]   Occasionall

Communities

The communities served by the CMER are spread across five principle locations.     Kinlochy   The small settlement of Kinlochy on Loch Tosh is built around the pier, which is the principal connection of the estate with the outside world. Kinlochy boasts a small, licensed public house with accommodation for walkers and other visitors, a boathouse, a general store, the estate workshops, the fuel tanks, a coal bunker, a refrigerated storeroom and a small bottling plant.
