Track gauge, 4 mm difference

[edit]

Toronto Street Railway#Track gauge {{cvt|4|ft|11|in|mm|2}} less {{cvt|4|ft|10+7/8|in|mm|2}} 4 ft 11 in (1,498.60 mm) less 4 ft 10+78 in (1,495.42 mm) give a difference of 18 in or 3.2 mm. 4 mm (532 in) a bit odd. Peter Horn User talk 23:23, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Historical sources suggest that Toronto gauge may have varied by ±18 in (3 mm) of today's 4 ft 10+78 in (1,495 mm) gauge. TheTrolleyPole (talk) 21:40, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
