Cape Gauge — From Ox-wagon to Iron Horse

evidence

Supports the Cape Colony's 1873 adoption of the 1,067 mm gauge over both 1,435 mm standard and a proposed 762 mm narrow gauge, and Chief Railway Engineer W. G. Brounger's argument that lower construction cost would be repaid in higher operating cost. V55 verification basis: substance carried in attributed search results; the article was not fetched and no Cape Government Railways record was consulted.

A evidence is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
