2.5 in (63.50 mm) vs 63.5 mm (2.50 in) Peter Horn User talk 22:56, 3 March 2010 (UTC) Peter Horn User talk 17:07, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
50.8mm Peter Horn User talk 17:05, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
Let's take a look at these. Which are the actual definitions for these gauges?
First we should keep in mind that no scale factors are involved. Back then, in the "# Gauge" era, model gauges were defined by their size.
a. "64mm" defined in 1891 by Märklin, metric.
b. Article text: After the change [of definition for "2 gauge"] to 2 in (50.8 mm) in 1909, 63mm/64 mm (2+1⁄2 in) gauge was standardised as 3 gauge.
c. "In the UK, No 3 gauge was [defined a] 2 1⁄2 in (63.5 mm)".
d. "63mm" was used earlier on this page.
None of these three steps (1981, 1909, UK 3 gauge) did mention a "63.5mm" definition (in metric). I conclude & propose:
If OK then A, B, C will be implemented in {{ RailGauge}} ( talk) - DePiep ( talk) 05:39, 15 May 2014 (UTC) Added: 63mm and conclusion C - DePiep ( talk) 06:14, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
