T-TRAK (all letters capitalized) is a modular model railroad system based on standards for module size, track placement, track interface, and electrical connections. The standards allow for a wide range of flexibility in design yet still maintain interoperability with all modules built per the standards.
The NMRA published alternative, more accurate and realistic standards for track and wheels sheet in S-1.1 These model railway standards are based on the full size prototype standards and the scale model operational reliability is therefore reduced in comparison to the models conforming to the normal NMRA standards.
NTRAK (all upper case letters) is one of several model railroad module standards. It is the most popular standard for use in United States N scale . NTRAK allows modelers to participate in a large layout but only invest a small amount of space at their own home.

The Australian Model Railway Association has a set of standards based on FREMO called the "AMRA Free Form Module Standard." Version 2.4 of the standard was published in July 2024. As of 2024 [update] , there are standards for HO and N Scales, with an O Scale version under development in collaboration with the Aus7 O Scale Modeller's Group.
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{Time measurement and standards | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{Time measurement and standards | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
Standards maintained by SAE International and widely used in the aerospace manufacturing industries. The "National" formerly implicitly referenced the US, but today NAS and other standards are used globally. Standard hardware for aerospace work sometimes uses the NAS- prefix in the catalog numbers.

Grooved rail, used when track is laid in places traversed by other vehicles or pedestrians. A grooved rail, groove rail, or girder rail is a special rail with a groove designed for tramway or railway track in pavement or grassed surfaces (grassed track or track in a lawn).
