Dear Tim,
No, no, I am serious. I know the NASG numbers as I was on the
standards committee that had them approved. But, No one that I have
ever met can tell you the exact official number to gauge any AF,
Vintage, classic or Flyonel. People who now repair flyer, Lionel
executives, past Gilbert employees, all of the repair literature that is
out there and nothing that I have been able to find. As all switch mfg.
can tell you, these numbers are critical for smooth operations. Someone
mentioned using a dime to gauge the wheels. This is the closest that I
have seen to a number (one I measure a dime), but is it close enough?
