Interesting chart for powered chassis users/kitbashers

I just came across the following Trainweb page that charts all of the various powered chassis/trucks that run on 9mm track.  It's handy because it converts the chassis dimensions to N Scale FT-IN, including bolster centers, and axle spacing and wheel size, etc.

May not be new to many, not sure. Tomytec and Kato are includes among some others.

Thanks John!

I saw an earlier version of this a dozen years ago when hunting for a power chassis for some EL cars, but your link has many more entries.  Good info.

I have a mind like a steel trap...a VERY rusty, old steel trap.
