#RailNatter Episode 55: Why Is Standard Track Gauge Four Foot Eight And A Half Inches?

2021-04-23

Download

In a change to the previously advertised schedule, I’m filling in with a pre-record in this week’s #RailNatter (we’ll have our first dual-guest episode next week)… We’re covering the origins of “standard” track gauge!

We’ll bust open the myths about horse’s bottoms and Romans (see also: the Space Shuttle episode) and look at the far more interesting reality of early railway infrastructure development – and not for the last time I am sure!

Join LIVE(ish) to keep up to date with the chat, even if I am not about to follow!
