Click the film frame below to run a little QuickTime movie showing my 666 running full circle on Veijo Kivipelto's track:
Juhani Saloranta has made an ingenious little adapter, enabling him to run his 6" gauge O&K loco on 7-1/4" track:
It works splendidly, with virtually no slipping. The only "funny" thing is that in order for the train to run forwards, the loco has to run in reverse!
For a comparison with "real life", have a look at this: http://www.dself.dsl.pipex.com/MUSEUM/LOCOLOCO/gaugechange/gaugechange.htm
