3.5 mm: Model railways (HO/h0) Exact HO scale (half O of 7 mm = 1 foot) 1:87: 3.503 mm: Model railways (HO/h0) Civilian and military vehicles. Often used to describe HO scale. Original nominal 25 mm figure scale; though a 6-foot human in 1:87 is closer to 21 mm. 1:82: 3.717 mm
Using 32 mm (1.26 in) - 0 gauge - track, there is an extensive range of 16 mm to the foot scale [1:19] live-steam and other types of locomotives, rolling stock and accessories. Many of these models are dual gauge, and can be converted to run on 45 mm ( 1.772 in ) track ( gauge 1 ), and radio control is common.

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.
Sulitjelma Line converted from 750 mm (2 ft 5 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) to dual gauge with 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in) and when later closed was converted to a road. 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in) 1922 Norway Skøyen–Filipstad Line: 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in) 1922 Norway Trondhjem–Støren Line
Conversion of units is the conversion of the unit of measurement in which a quantity is expressed, typically through a multiplicative conversion factor that changes the unit without changing the quantity. This is also often loosely taken to include replacement of a quantity with a corresponding quantity that describes the same physical property.
