Scale gauges

[merlinParticipant @merlin98989]

I think IanT might be replying to me.

The private railway track and its model buildings are easily visible through the shrubbery to the right of the public footpath. I haven't noticed the house but it must be there somewhere, between the path and the river Thames. Just after passing the property the footpath bends right to return to the river side, towards Marsh Lock and Henley.. I first saw it about 30 years ago and a friend of mine walked past it last week, hence my renewed interest. I think that Fawley Court is a huge pile on the far side of Henley.

Never mind, it is not important; I hope that this thread about scales and gauges has been informative for others as well as me.

A good puzzle is always worth a try:

The path now opens out on to water meadows alive with with flowers that thrive in marshland and wends its way beside the river towards Shiplake. We pass over a small bridge and alongside a garden with a miniature railway, past other large riverside homes and over the level railway crossing to Lower Shiplake. We are soon at Shiplake lock where there are permanent tents used in summer by their owners, some still in use as the season draws to an end. We cross fields of livestock and pass beside the Shiplake college boat houses with a glimpse of the college and church high up on the hill. The path narrows and follows the river closely with open views to our right looking over towards Binfield Heath.
