    BVE: Creating a narrow gauge route?

    Hello,
    I am embarking to build a small representation of one of the narrow gauge railway lines in my local area. I am wondering how I can use/make 2ft gauge tracks to use in the route.

    2foot; are you wanting to model Maine or Vermont narrow gauge lines?
    I suggest you study the railways that you find interesting, and determine the rail size (Lbs/Yard), wood sleeper\tie size, tieplates. etc that were used. Photos of track, rolling stock, buildings, and scenery are helpful. Track plan and profiles drawings are very useful.
    Then 3D models (B3D files) will need to be written and combined into track assemblies, rolling stock, buildings, etc.
    Then the above files are referenced in an OpenBVE route file.
