in comparison to what is G gauge?

Kind of an abstract question but to give you some idea gauges are the size of the train the G and H are bigger than the O and HO the smallest size is Z (rediculoulsy small). To give you a reference size G is about as big as one of those Duraflame logs you can buy at the grocery store. G is the standard size for trains people put around their tree at Christmas time.

18 gauge. Don't know why people answer with guesses. It's like guessing a fuse is 15 amps when it's really only 8 amps. Huge difference between 14 gauge and 18 gauge.

Im not sure the actual gauge but it is very sturdy and the same quality that I have used while working in restaurants.

O gauge track. The Scale refers to the size of the train. It is O scale also

I don't know about this gauge, but I have the .010 set on my SG and it took a little getting used to as far as feel goes, no friction and a little stiff with the wound G, but no squeaks and you can fly. Regardless, they do work well with alternate tunings i.e. open G and open C (esp.)

I am not aware that there are two different gauges?After checking their website it appears to be 7 Ga.

I'm not sure what gauge it is but it's definetly heavy and strong. The handles are riveted. Im happy with mine..

Polar express train set o gauge with the locomotive made from die-cast metal parts, running on standard Lionel track, also made of metal. The g gauge set, on the other hand, is made from plastic - locomotive, coaches and track.

I have not. Without comparing to a calibrated gauge, you won't know which has gauge is actually the accurate one. What I like about this gauge is that it gives me percise consistent results.. Hard to tell how accurate they are however like I mentioned.

No, it is actually a pretty decent price - the G gauge goes for quite a bit cheaper, perhaps that is your confusion. The cheapest price Amazon has had on this O gauge set is $139 back in September which is an unheard of price for new Lionel O gauge sets.

O vs G is the size of the tracks which translate into the size of your train + accessories. The Christmas trains sets you will typically find in toy stores are G. They are maybe twice as big as O gauge. Because of the larger size, the G gauge in retail stores are typically plastic - lighter, cheaper and run on batteries. I have yet to see an O in your normal retail store. O gauge is 1:48 scale (vs 1:22-29 of G). Myself, am shopping for an O gauge that does not run on batteries. Like this one.

I have three very good air gauges. When I compared them, they all read very similar. This gauge reads down to the tenth of a PSI so I would say it is the most accurate gauge that I own compared to my other analogue gauges.

With out getting too technical 12 agw is best 14agw will do and pass on 16agw. For the tech stuff see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gaugeHope this helps.

I don't know the actual gauge. What I do know is this is thick high quality paper. Of the different easel pads I've tried, this is the nicest paper.

The gauge shows two things, and they move together. One has a * 2 * 4 * 6 (etc) scale, the other has little bars that measure each 10 pounds of pressure. The first bar corresponds to 20, then there's the number 30, then two more bars, then the number 60, etc. The needle on the gauge, when I tried it just now, begins to move when I get more than 20 lbs. of pressure into the tube. The "2" on the numeric scale roughly corresponds to 35 lbs of pressure. Hope that's helpful

I have seen these at home depot, they are of a thinner gauge, the more expensive model is quite thick and heavy.

The ga stands for gauge. To my knowledge only one will fit the machine....read the machine directions if you have one; otherwise refer to what is included in a kit. You will benefit from reading from The Silver Edge and from the The Silver Lung. These are both reputable companies. You also get what you pay for! Nancy Morse
