   Common gauges are 7-1/2" (Western US) and 7-1/4" (Eastern US & rest of the world), 5", and 4-3/4". Smaller live steam gauges do exist, but as the scale gets smaller, pulling power decreases. One of the smallest gauges on which a live steam engine can pull a passenger is the now almost defunct 2 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch gauge. The next largest scale range ...

   It has a density of 1.17–1.20 g/cm 3, [1] [16] which is approximately half that of glass, which is generally, depending on composition, 2.2–2.53 g/cm 3. [1] It also has good impact strength, higher than both glass and polystyrene, but significantly lower than polycarbonate and some engineered polymers.
