  2. Live steam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_steam

    Live steam. A hand-crafted, coal-fired, 1:8 scale 2-10-0 'live steam' locomotive in 71⁄4 in ( 184 mm) gauge. A "high line" representation of a Whitelegg-designed Baltic Tank in LT&S Livery. This engine runs on a track gauge of 3.5 inches and is powerful enough to pull several people. High lines are a configuration of a continuously elevated ...

  3. Stream gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_gauge

    A stream gauge, streamgage or stream gauging station is a location used by hydrologists or environmental scientists to monitor and test terrestrial bodies of water. Hydrometric measurements of water level surface elevation ("stage") and/or volumetric discharge (flow) are generally taken and observations of biota and water quality may also be made.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narrow-gauge_railroads_in...

    The Denver and Rio Grande Railroad, opened in 1871, was one of the first three narrow gauges in the United States and by far the longest and most significant. It effectively circled the state of Colorado, and feeder lines were run to the mining communities of Leadville, Aspen, Cripple Creek, Telluride and Silverton.

  5. List of rail transport modelling scale standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rail_transport...

    The 37.5 mm length is not derived by a certain scale ratio. While HO scale is a 1:87 scale (3.5 mm to 1 foot), resulting in a 16.5 mm ( 0.65 in) gauge from real life prototype 1,435 mm ( 4 ft 81⁄2 in) standard gauge standard gauge. Conversely, modeling standard gauge in Lego trains would yield a scaling of (37.5:1435 =) 1:38.3.

  6. Narrow-gauge railways in North America - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narrow-gauge_railways_in...

    A steam locomotive of the C&TS RR. Many narrow-gauge railways were built in the United States with track gauge 3 ft ( 914 mm ). The most extensive and well known systems were the 3 ft ( 914 mm) gauge lines through the Rocky Mountain states of Colorado and New Mexico . Today a few lines survive as heritage railways and tourist attractions.

  8. Steam locomotive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_locomotive

    The first full-scale working railway steam locomotive was the 3 ft (914 mm) gauge Coalbrookdale Locomotive, built by Trevithick in 1802. It was constructed for the Coalbrookdale ironworks in Shropshire in the United Kingdom though no record of it working there has survived.

  9. Primary flight display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_flight_display

    A primary flight display or PFD is a modern aircraft instrument dedicated to flight information. Much like multi-function displays, primary flight displays are built around a Liquid-crystal display or CRT display device. Representations of older six pack or "steam gauge" instruments are combined on one compact display, simplifying pilot ...
