I should have been more clear, sorry.
I don't pretend to know anything about railroad gauges. They could be based on the alignment of the stars for all I know.
My objection was that like most stories/facts, the internet takes it and details keep getting added to make the story more interesting.
The facts about railroad gauges are interesting but they would be a lot more interesting if we could somehow tie it to the space shuttle or something modern and high tech. But often the person or people that put these "yarns" together often overshoot the mark into ridiculousness as is the case here.
