2. Third rail (model rail) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_rail_(model_rail)

   GarGraves is a North American manufacturer of O gauge three-rail track with all of its rails insulated. Trix Express is a European manufacturer of three-rail track who insulates all three rails. On a simple, non-computerised layout only one train can run independently on either a two or three-rail system (two trains if combined with overhead ...

   This gauge is represented by the EM Society (in full, Eighteen Millimetre Society). 00 track (16.5 mm) is the wrong gauge for 1:76 scale, but use of an 18.2 mm (0.717 in) gauge track is accepted as the most popular compromise towards scale dimensions without having to make significant modifications to ready-to-run models. Has a track gauge ...

4. O scale - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_scale

   O scale (or O gauge) is a scale commonly used for toy trains and rail transport modelling.Introduced by German toy manufacturer Märklin around 1900, by the 1930s three-rail alternating current O gauge was the most common model railroad scale in the United States and remained so until the early 1960s.

   In O scale terms, this is known as Mini-O Scale and in S Scale terms it is known as Major S Scale. O-27 scale: 1:48 (US) 31.7 mm A Lionel variant on O-scale. Has a slightly shorter profile and sharper 27 inch diameter curves (but also comes in 42, 54 and 72 inch diameter curves) than typical oversized O scale track.

   By Summer, 1945 it was able to resume limited manufacturing of the 3/16s scale O gauge trains. While it did so, the same sized products were re-engineered to run on much more realistic two rail (with a "T" profile rail) track. The fine detail of the diecast engines, tenders and cars that had debuted in the '39 catalog reappeared.

7. Trainmaster Command Control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trainmaster_Command_Control

   Trainmaster Command (TMCC) is Lionel's electronic control system for O scale 3-rail model trains and toy trains that mainly ran from 1994 to 2006. Conceptually it is similar to Digital Command Control (DCC), the industry's open standard used by HO scale and other 2-rail DC trains.
