tommytowtruck,
It's 16mm/foot scale which means it runs on O gauge(32mm) or G(45mm) gauge tracks. The wheel spacing is adjustable.
Just started a 3 1/2" gauge one yesterday, which should be big enough to haul a couple of people, so might put a tender in for the West Coast rail franchise when it's finished.
Love that MG somafunk, that's a proper thing of beauty!

My jealousy levels are off the scale right now. Curse my lack of talent, dexterity and patience!

Daniel - They are brilliant. Did you go with the usual plans I see advertised in the Landy monthlies for the Toylander or did you do your own thing?

Some interesting hobbies, like the look of those models and the train/engine is Awsome.

I'm thinking of testing out an HHO for my car over the next few months, apparently you can improve fuel efficiency, however that might just be BS.
