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 ...
EM or 4 mm: 1:76: 18.2 mm (0.717 in) 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 ...
IIm gauge LGB Train. Gauge 2 (also called 2 gauge or II gauge) is a model railway gauge, originally 64 mm (2 + 1 ⁄ 2 in), [1] then standardised in 1909 at 2 in (50.8 mm), a 20% reduction and a change in definition: from mm to inch. [citation needed] It has since fallen into disuse. The gauge was introduced by Märklin at the Leipzig toy fair ...
However, the 3 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch (89 mm) 12-gauge shell, with its higher SAAMI pressure rating of 14,000 psi (97 MPa) compared to standard 2 + 3 ⁄ 4-inch (70 mm) and 3-inch (76 mm) 12-gauge shells with their lower pressure rating of 11,500 psi (79 MPa), began to approach the performance of the 3 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch (89 mm) 10-gauge shells with a ...
EM gauge: 1:76.2: 18.2 mm EM gauge was an earlier attempt in the 1950s to improve the inaccuracies of OO gauge, with wider, more accurate track at 18 mm (0.709 in) between the rails, but still narrower than the correct gauge. The gauge was later widened to 18.2 mm (0.717 in). The UK-based EM Gauge Society exists to supports modellers of these ...
See Narrow-gauge railways in Denmark: 686 mm: 2 ft 3 in: See List of 2 ft 3 in gauge railways: 693 mm: 2 ft 3 + 9 ⁄ 32 in: Sweden: 28 Swedish inches. [28] Several railways. 700 mm 2 ft 3 + 9 ⁄ 16 in: Denmark See Narrow-gauge railways in Denmark and Narrow-gauge railways in Europe. Common for sugar beet or sugar cane railways and peat railways.
However, lines formerly operated (but which continue to be owned) by the Kowloon-Canton Railway Corporation, including the Light Rail network, use 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) gauge. New lines and extensions to the MTR after 2014 use 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) gauge, including the South Island line, Kwun Tong line extension and West ...
Many names, particularly those of British origin, such as O14 and 00-9 combine the name of the scale used with the physical measurement of the gauge, i.e. the 7 mm-to-the-foot scale from standard O gauge with a rail gauge of 14 mm, giving a precise representation of 2 ft (610 mm) prototypes.
