A 242A1 locomotive and standard gauge track at some model railway scales. This page lists the most relevant model railway scale standards in the world. Most standards are regional, but some have followers in other parts of the world outside their native region, most notably NEM and NMRA.
Private and public (club) tracks exist in many areas. Among is them the world's largest model railroad: Train Mountain Railroad, [1] with over 25 miles (40 km) of tracks. Powerful locomotives can pull 50 or more passengers. Narrow-gauge models in this gauge can be as large as 1:3 scale. 5-inch Live steam: 1:12
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.

TT scale (from "table top") is a model railroading scale at 1:120 scale with a track gauge of 12 mm between the rails. It is placed between HO scale (1:87) and N scale (1:160). Its original purpose, as the name suggests, was to make a train set small enough to assemble and operate on a tabletop.
Used by Heller for model ships, and proposed by the Japanese to supersede 1:144 scale trains. Models which are commonly made in scale at 1:150 are commercial airliners - such as the Airbus A320, Boeing 777 all the way to the jumbo jets - the Airbus A380 & Boeing 747.

The NEM standards define the model railroad scales and guide manufacturers in creating compatible products and assist modellers in constructing model railroad layouts that operate reliably. The standards cover areas like suggested grades , turnout radii, wheel profiles, coupling designs and Digital Command Control (DCC) and are mostly scale ...
