I have had three user names on this forum since 2001 when I first joined: "Beowulf", "Multi-Gauge Art" and currently "Tinplate Art". Beowulf stemmed from my graduate study of Anglo Saxon and Beowulf while the second one derived from the multiple gauges I was then involved in: modern O, standard and G (LGB). I actually had three concentric loops of the three gauges at my depot home in Western North Carolina. In the mid-2000's, I sold off the modern O and the LGB and went strictly standard gauge with an outer 084 oval. I then started an O gauge layout at my Nashville home. Later, scrapped the O and went strictly standard. When the Vision Line 700E came out, I once again laid down an 072 loop and purchased a Legacy control system. Other MTH and Lionel engines followed and I was back into O for the multeenth time!
I was given a 2017 LGB new items catalog by my local dealer and once again was attracted to these wonderful models and gauge! I divested the O gauge to purchase both new condition original LGB and some of the newer Hungary-produced equipment. I especially like the Suisse RhB and the Austrian prototype models, especially the chocolate brown RhB "Baby Krok". I currently have an analog sound model of this loco.
So, I am running my standard gauge on two concentric loops with an R2 LGB loop in between.
I suppose my new forum name should be "Large Trains" Art or maybe just "ANY Model Trains Art"! 
I make NO apologies for gauge switching as it has brought me great fun for most of my 75 revolutions around the Sun!
PS: My early childhood trains were Marx and later on Gilbert American Flyer S gauge (at one point had 5 engines and 28 cars including the fantastic 5 car North Coast Limited Set with A-B-A ALCO PA diesels).
