Controlled Traffic & Tramline Widths??

Not really sure where to put this. But if the moderators want to move it that's fine. Really needs to be another segment opened up for CTF, would be great. Just my opinion.

Was wondering what people have been setting the width of their tramlines/ wheels spacings? Have done a search & can't find a whole lot on the subject.

I know 3m/ 118" seems to be the standard but it doesn't really suit the size of machinery these days or the size the machinery is heading. Would say somewhere around 3.4m-3.6m / 134"- 148" or even wider may be better?
Can't see the point of extending axles & making up wheel spacers to only need to make them wider in a few years. Sort of beats the purpose of CTF in the first place.

What's everyone's thoughts & ideas on the subject?

Around here everyone uses 120" (Due to thje fact US Machinery can be easily set up on it) Aus manufacturers tend to make machinery on 3000mm but I have customers that get 1" spacer plates made to suit so they are on 120".
