The 7mm Narrow Gauge Association

 

 

The 7mm Narrow Gauge Association aims to encourage the modelling of narrow gauge railways at a scale of or around 7mm to 1 foot (1:43)


 

Links to Web Sites of Association Members

This page was inspired when a member of the Association sent an email asking if he could put a link from his pages to the Association Web Site. Mervyn Axson found it fascinating to sit at his desk in England and look at an 0-16.5 Narrow Gauge railway in Japan. So the idea of a page linking to members web sites was born.

A number of sites on the Links and Members pages are not in English but you can translate most major languages to or from English at The Babelfish. It's a machine translation so can be a bit idiosyncratic at times but widens the availability of information to Association members.

  • Noburo Koizumi (1719) in Japan - about many narrow gauge subjects including his Nigorigo (Muddy River) Tramway. Many of you will have seen his article in the May/June 1997 Narrow Gauge & Short Line Gazette on modelling in styrene sheet using computer drawn templates.
  • Brian Rumary (0068) in England - in addition to being one of our members, Brian has long been associated with the Industrial Railway Society and his website is mainly about industrial railways in Germany & Austria.
  • Steve Thomason (0722) in England - Steve says "The objective of these pages is to highlight industrial narrow gauge railways throughout Europe which are still in use in the 1990's, or in use for freight services, in those countries where narrow gauge is still a common carrier."
  • Anders Östlund (1747) in Sweden - To quote Anders' own words "Welcome to my page for the narrow minded. These pages are dedicated to railways in general but narrow gauge ones are primary. I have focused on Swedish 60cm gauge (of course), but if I find any thing else of interest I will of course add this."
  • Andrew Bantock (2054) in England - A joint Anglo-US venture, Andrew having joined with Ray Lantz to create it. The authors describe it as "The Finescale 1/32 Narrow Gauge Railway Modelling Site" and say "It was the 7mm NGA's website that guided Andy to Ray's own site which led them to an electronic penfriendship which led to this"
  • Fabrice Fayolle (2136) in France - Making N Scale and O Scale Narrow Gauge models. The web site is only in French.
  • Guillaume Veenhuis (1759) in Holland - The Watkijk/HSS layout featured in Narrow Lines
  • Trevor Foster (1304) in England -  The Clairmont railway is featured in our picture gallery.
  • Alan Rogers (1950) in England - The continuing saga of a fictitious narrow gauge railway.
  • Dave Balcombe (2518) in England - Teetering by the Well, a humorous and well-built light railway and estate railway in two gauges.

Will any member with a web site devoted to their narrow gauge interests please send an email to me giving its address so that I may add it to this page.
