G Scale is the most popular scale for garden railroads, though 16 mm scale also has a following, especially in the United Kingdom. Model locomotives in this scale are often live steam scale models of British narrow gauge prototypes. 16 mm scale (which runs on 32 mm / 1.26 in) track, the same gauge as O gauge is probably now more popular in the ...
A worldwide garden railroad scale. Corresponds to NEM III and NMRA 3 ⁄ 4 inch. -1:12: 4 + 3 ⁄ 4 in (121 mm) North America specific scale corresponding to NMRA 1-inch scale. 1:12 is one of the most popular backyard railway scales. -1:11: 5 in (127 mm) Used outside North America. Corresponds to NEM V. One of the most popular garden railway ...
Since the 1950s, 2 mm scale has been used to depict narrow-gauge prototypes on various track gauges down to 4 mm (0.157 in) [citation needed], but almost everything has to be hand-made, unless some Z scale parts are used. N scale: 1:160: 9 mm Name derived from "Nine millimeter"; this is the second most popular scale worldwide. N scale developed ...
Gn15 modeling is a relatively new phenomenon in the model railroading world. While the idea of this scale has existed for some time, as evidenced by the early efforts of Marc Horovitz, editor of Garden Railways magazine, Gn15 did not gain any measure of popularity until the Sidelines range of models.
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-inch gauge. As 00 is a particularly British scale, it is not included within this pan-European standard. However the predominantly US imperial-based S scale ...

On3 – Using O scale (1:48 ratio) with 0.75 in (19.05 mm) gauge track. Probably the second most popular scale. F scale – using 1:20.3 ratio with 45 mm (1.772 in) gauge track. This scale uses the same gauge as, and is derived from the popular G scale. It is the largest popular scale/gauge combination, and is suitable for use in the garden.
