  2. G scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G_scale

    The 45 mm gauge originated from 1 gauge or "gauge one" which was first used in Europe and Britain and used to model standard gauge trains in the scale of 1:32. LGB were first to adopt the term G scale and used the gauge of 45 mm (1.772 in) to model 1,000 mm gauge European trains in 1:22.5 scale.

  3. Scale of chords - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_of_Chords

    A chord is a line drawn between two points on the circumference of a circle. Look at the centre point of this line. For a circle of radius r, each half will be ⁡ so the chord will be ⁡. The line of chords scale represents each of these values linearly on a scale running from 0 to 60.

  4. Rail transport modelling scales - Wikipedia

    The European standard of 1:22.5 scale trains on 45 mm (1.772 in) track is called IIm scale, as per European narrow-gauge naming conventions or G scale, its popular name. Live steam: 1:24: 63 mm At 2 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (64 mm), this is the smallest of the "ridable" gauges [citation needed]. Only one or two passengers can be pulled.

  5. List of rail transport modelling scale standards - Wikipedia

    The most popular scale in Japan. For models of Shinkansen high speed trains and other systems using standard gauge track, the international N scale standard ratio of 1:160 is commonly used. TT9: 1:120: 9 mm (0.354 in) Used also in New Zealand. HOn 2 + 1 ⁄ 2: 1:87: 9 mm (0.354 in) Used for 2 ft 6 in (762 mm) narrow gauge. 13 mm: 1:80: 13 mm (0 ...

    This is done by having a chord of 100 feet (30.48 m) connecting to two points on an arc of the reference rail, then drawing radii from the center to each of the chord's end points. The angle between the radii lines is the degree of curvature. [ 10 ]

  7. USA Trains - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USA_Trains

    USA Trains is a manufacturer of G scale model railroad products that started out as Charles Ro Manufacturing Company. [1] They offer two different scale sizes of trains that use the same track; the "Ultimate Series," which is 1:29 scale, and the "American" and "Work Trains" series which is 1:24 scale.

  8. Gn15 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gn15

    Gn15 is a rail modelling scale, using G scale 1:22.5 scale trains running on H0/00 gauge (16.5 mm / 0.65 in) track, representing minimum gauge and miniature railways. Typical models built are between 1:20.3 and 1:24, [ 1 ] or up to 1:29.

  9. Circle of thirds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_thirds

    For example, in the key in E minor, the tonic chord (E, G, B) becomes an E minor seventh chord (E, G, B, D), if the fourth note (D) is added to the triad. This applies to all other chords in the scale. [1] A mnemonic also exists in the circle of thirds. The sequence DFACEGB appears three times.
