Dang Rail Craft/ME track gauges.  I used them instead of my Railway Engineering "Rollee Holders" because I figured the heat wouldn't bother the Rail Craft/ME metal gauges, and it might or might not bother the Lucite rollee thingies.  Sadly, the result is consistently over-gauge bridles.

I de-soldered one of the bad ones with my fingers on the rails to see how hot they get, and the answer is "not that hot".

So I made up another one with the Rollee Holders, and its gauge is perfect.
