Licensees that formerly or currently offer separate sale decoders include Train America Studios, Digital Dynamics, and Electric RR Co. TMCC decoders have mostly been installed in 3-rail O gauge models, but it has also been offered in 2-rail O scale and S scale. TMCC utilizes the same command codes as Digital Command Control (DCC).
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 ...
A scale model of the Tower of London. This model can be found inside the tower. A scale model of a hydropower turbine. A scale model is a physical model that is geometrically similar to an object (known as the prototype). Scale models are generally smaller than large prototypes such as vehicles, buildings, or people; but may be larger than ...
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 ...

OO scale (left) and HO scale (right) models of the EMD Class 66, showing the size difference. OO scale permits a level of detail including weathering and individual numbering. 16.5 mm ( 0.65 in ) gauge at 4 mm:1 foot means that the scale gauge represents 4 ft 1 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (1,257 mm), 7 inches (178 mm) narrower than the prototype 4 ft 8 + 1 ...
