Some railways, primarily in the northeast, used standard gauge of 4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (1,435 mm); others used gauges ranging from 2 ft (610 mm) to 6 ft (1,829 mm). As a general rule, southern railroads were built to one or another broad gauge, mostly 5 ft ( 1,524 mm ), while northern railroads that were not standard-gauge tended to be narrow-gauge.
Two foot and 600 mm gauge railways are narrow-gauge railways with track gauges of 2 ft (610 mm) and 600 mm (1 ft 11 + 5 ⁄ 8 in), respectively. Railways with similar, less common track gauges, such as 1 ft 11 + 3 ⁄ 4 in ( 603 mm ) and 1 ft 11 + 1 ⁄ 2 in ( 597 mm ), are grouped with 2 ft and 600 mm gauge railways.
Royal Arsenal Railway (standard gauge lines, 18 in (457 mm) gauge lines, and dual gauge lines with standard gauge track and 18 in (457 mm) gauge track also present) (defunct) Southport Pier Tramway (converted from 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm) gauge, then converted back to 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm) gauge) (operating) 1 ft 11 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (597 mm) Scotland
If the difference between the two gauges is large enough – for example between 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) standard gauge and 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm) – three-rail dual-gauge is possible, but if not – for example between 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm) and 1,000 mm (3 ft 3 + 3 ⁄ 8 in) metre gauge – four rails must be used. Dual-gauge rail lines ...
2 ft 6 in (762 mm) gauge railways are narrow gauge railways with track gauge of 2 ft 6 in (762 mm). This type of rail was promoted especially in the colonies of the British Empire during the second half of the nineteenth century by Thomas Hall and Everard Calthrop .
