NMRA Hon3 Mark IV Standards Guage
|
Dusty
Recent Ebay purchase. NMRA Packaging said MK IV, Guage said MK III. I get that Ebay is the mail order Wild West. Somewhere between buyer beware and duck and cover but was there an actual MK IV Hon3 guage? My 3 guages are all MK III but that doesn't mean much, does it?
Help? Dusty Burman 623 261-8707 |

Mk III for HOn3, Mk IV or V for other scale/gauges. The NMRA haven't updated their HOn3 gauge...yet. Not that it should make any difference, as the physical.distances are set in the standards. Ask the NMRA if unsure.

When I first joined the NMRA in 1965 or 1966 my primary scale/guage was Hon3 and the NMRA sent me a square Hon3 standards guage. it was 5/8" square, more or less. Anyone remember those?

When I applied in the 60s the NMRA sent me a standards gauge and hard copy’s of the standards and recommended practices all of which I still have that will go in a dumpster when I take my last trip.
