Can you really use the base of the rail to set the track gauge reliably?

Yes! Rail is formed by drawing it through a forming die, so the base of the rail is as accurate as the head of the rail. Micro Engineering manufactures its rail to a tolerance of +/- .001" at the base. That's 1/4 the thickness of a regular piece of paper!
