Unfortunately I have to say NO. In the early 90ies when my interest in IR started and with the Baby GMs by Murphy I said 21mm for sure! An addition to my already exisitng US 1/87 collection. I had ties, rails and nails to make US style hand laid track. No problems at that time. All I was afraid was making points(turnouts). Now nearly 30 years later I have not one inch hand laid track. But started to be interested in JNR (Japan, 1/80 on 16.5mm / prototypical 1067mm narrowgauge). This lead to a collection of 1/80 narrow gauge JNR plus a collection of 1/76 wide gauge IR - both on 16.5mm tracks and in parallel to a collection of standard gauge US material (1/87-16.5mm). I noticed my lifetime seems not to be endless to regauge all rolling stock and prepare 3 separate layouts. tounge in cheek: It equals if you take the average of JNR 1/80 track is too wide and IR 1/76 track is too narrow.
