- shezi 7y agoPlease note that, while amusing, this is mostly false. Especially the space shuttle part of the story: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/railroad-gauge-chariots/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/railroad-gauge-chariots/
- zwerdlds 7y agoInteresting. The article says the standard is 4' 8", and the South mostly used 5' 6". 8" variation seems like not that much when you're dealing with something as imprecise as a wagon wheel. I don't know though. Thanks for the link.
