Model trains come in a variety of different sizes, called scales. The scale of a model railroad is it’s relative size in proportion to real-life trains. The distance between the rails is typically called the ‘gauge’.
T gauge is a model railway size with a track distance of 3 mm. It is the smallest commercial model train gauge in the world. For decades, the most common and popular scale is HO.
Here’s a short video explaining the differences.
I understand N, HO, G, etc… but when it comes to O, I get very confused. O Scale, O Gauge, Semi Scale, Standard Scale, etc…
I want a Z or T scale to run on my desk.
S scale is diecast cars mainly Tomica, but cars vary a lot and diecast manufactures use the scale as a guide
I'm N Scale. 😀 1:160 that is. Not the 1:148 of British N Scale or Japanese 1:150 for 3'6" track.
Ho and 00 are the same scale tho
