	The Chinese Experience in America (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The Chinese who came to America in the late nineteenth century were mainly poor peasants and workers who had to struggle to survive in the destitute circumstances of their times.
		But the war did not solve the opium issue and for several years opium was not contraband in the newly annexed British colony of Hong Kong, from where the Chinese carried opium into the United States.
		It is not clear, then, whether the secret societies in America were simply different branches of the parent Triad of China or emanated from one branch of the Triad which first came to the New World.

	NZR Tarins - 0 gauge models
		The main compromise is in the area of track gauge where a 0.5mm overscale gauge has been accepted as the price of an easy to use scale ratio and an off the shelf track product (being standard 0 gauge track).
		That is a small compromise compared to the errors widely accepted in other parts of the hobby like British 00, US 0 scale and G scale.
		It can even be argued, maybe a little tenuously, that the 0.5 mm error is within the tolerances of prototype track widening on sharp curves in the steam era of long fixed wheelbases.
