2. H0m gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H0m_gauge

   In the same scale standard-gauge trains are modelled on 16.5 mm (0.65 in) gauge track, known as H0. Narrow-gauge trains are usually modelled on 9 mm (0.354 in) gauge track which is known as H0e and industrial minimum-gauge lines are modelled on 6.5 mm (0.256 in) gauge track known as H0f gauge. HOn3 is used to model 3 ft (914 mm) gauge railroads ...

3. HO scale - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HO_scale

   HO or H0 is a rail transport modelling scale using a 1:87 scale (3.5 mm to 1 foot). It is the most popular scale of model railway in the world. [1] [2] The rails are spaced 16.5 millimetres (0.650 in) apart for modelling 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) standard gauge tracks and trains in HO.

4. HOn30 gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HOn30_gauge

   The term HOn30 (and sometimes HOn2½) is generally used when modelling American prototypes while H0e is used for European prototypes. In Britain, the term OO9 is used. [1] All these terms refer to models of narrow-gauge railways built to the world's most popular model railway scale of HO (1:87) but using a track gauge of 9 mm (0.354 in)—the gauge used for N scale models of standard-gauge ...

6. Model railroad layout - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_railroad_layout

   Part of an HO scale model railroad layout. In model railroading, a layout is a diorama containing scale track for operating trains. The size of a layout varies, from small shelf-top designs to ones that fill entire rooms, basements, or whole buildings. Attention to modeling details such as structures and scenery is common. Simple layouts are ...

7. List of rail transport modelling scale standards - Wikipedia

   Lego trains use a fixed nominal gauge of 37.5 mm (1 + 15 ⁄ 32 in), based on 5-stud track centerlines gauge. [5] [6] [7] The 37.5 mm length is not derived by a certain scale ratio. While HO scale is a 1:87 scale (3.5 mm to 1 foot), resulting in a 16.5 mm (0.65 in) gauge from real life prototype 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) standard gauge ...

8. Rail fastening system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rail_fastening_system

   Rusted cut spikes (scale in inches) Dog spike. A rail spike (also known as a cut spike or crampon) is a large nail with an offset head that is used to secure rails and base plates to railroad ties (sleepers) in the track. Robert Livingston Stevens is credited with the invention of the rail spike, [6] the first recorded use of which was in 1832. [7]

   Thus the scale and approximate prototype gauge are represented, with the model gauge used (9 mm for H0e gauge; 6.5 mm for H0f gauge) being implied. [ 2 ] The scales used include the general European modelling range of Z, N, TT, H0, 0 and also the large model engineering gauges of I to X, including 3 + 1 ⁄ 2 , 5, 7 + 1 ⁄ 4 and 10 + 1 ⁄ 4 ...
