I recently read of new Bachmann narrow gauge engines under the branding NG7. Which is, I believe to be the same as O-16.5 or O gauge narrow gauge engines running on HO-OO 16.5mm track = 2 foot 4 inch narrow gauge. See this link.
I have four narrow gauge layouts - Ogam & Stone a simple oval built to 7mm = 1 foot or O gauge (O-16.5), OSO SALT a diorama shelf layout built to 11mm = 1 foot (possibly NG11?) running on 16.5mm track equating to 18 inch narrow gauge track and trains, Yellow Pelican also built to 11mm = 1 foot on 16.5mm track another NG11 and finally Cold Comfort Lane which is built to 1/35th scale or NG8.5 or NG8.6 or maybe even NG9?
I hope you are following so far.....
The latest planned layout will be a Pizza Layout built to 11mm = 1 foot running on 16.5mm PECO O-16.5 'Crazy Track' so an 18 inch gauge narrow gauge railway or NG11 - I am still to decide on a name.
Planning is still at a very early stage but I do have an engine, plans for at least two wagons and earlier today I purchased two lengths of PECO O-16.5 track. Expect updates once the two engineers (grandsons Finley and Charlie) have finalised their plans.
Welcome to NG11.

Hmm glad you mentioned our grandchildren, you keep saying it’s is for THEM to make and design but the above blog….suggests otherwise. :p
