Finescale standards or Fine Standards [1] are model railway standards that aim to be close to the prototype dimensions. Reduction in toylike, overscale flanges, pointwork , etc. In Britain it is particularly used because small British prototypes meant that track gauge is underscale.
On May 1, 2024, Kalmbach Media announced the sale of several titles to Firecrown Media, including Trains, Model Railroader, Classic Toy Trains, Classic Trains, Garden Railways, and the trains.com web site. [19] Also included in the sale is Astronomy magazine, FineScale Modeler, the Kalmbach
Proto and finescale rails and wheels are generally not compatible with the normal scale model railway material with the same scale ratio. Proto scale was originally developed by the Model Railway Study Group in Great Britain in 1966 and later adopted into NMRA standards with modifications necessary for the North American prototype railway ...
2 mm scale, often 2 mm finescale is a specification used for railway modelling, [1] largely for modelling British railway prototypes. [citation needed] It uses a scale of 2 mm on the model to 1 foot on the prototype, which scales out to 1:152. [1] The track gauge used to represent prototype standard gauge (4 feet 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 inches) is 9.42 mm ...
George Sellios was the owner of Fine Scale Miniatures (FSM), a business dedicated to producing detailed model kits of structures for model railroad enthusiasts. He is also an accomplished modeler and is well-known in the hobby for his layout, the Franklin & South Manchester Railroad which attracts visitors from around the world.

3 mm scale, also known as 3 mm finescale, is a model railway scale of 3 mm : 1 ft (305 mm) used for British prototypes. Introduced as British TT gauge , it sits approximately halfway between British N gauge and OO gauge but is not as popular as either and there is no longer any mass manufacturer ready-to-run support.
