Typically narrow gauge modellers focus on one of three approaches: accurately modeling a specific prototype, modeling believeable models of a generic prototype, or creating an artistic representation of an industry or geographic area.
Worldwide there are probably more modellers of Colorado's mining railways than of any other type, followed by modellers of logging/timber railways in various parts of the world. However, somewhere in the world there is undoubtedly at least one modeller of almost any narrow gauge railway or tramway gauge/type/system.
The models highlighted are representative of narrow gauge modelling, including both SIG members (regardless of their prototype) and non-members when modelling Australian profile.

Fabrice Fayolle is not a SIG member but he models On30
Queensland sugar
cane railways (above) while living in France.
SIG member, Lynn Zelmer, has built several models of Queensland's
sugar cane railways in HOn30 and On30 (above). He also coordinates the
CaneSIG web site where
you can find more of his narrow gauge models.
