1:16: 3 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (89 mm) 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.
Narrow-gauge models in this gauge can be as large as 1:3 scale. 5-inch Live steam: 1:12: 127 mm or 121 mm Ridable, outdoor gauge. The gauge is 5 in (127 mm) in Europe, but 4 + 3 ⁄ 4 in (121 mm) in US and Canada. For standard gauge prototypes at 5 inch, the correct scale is 1 1 ⁄ 16 inch per foot or approximately 1:11.3. Alternatively 1.1/8 ...
The vast majority of rapid transit systems use 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) standard gauge.Some of the largest and oldest subway systems in the world use standard gauge in agreement with the country wide dominant usage for track gauge, e.g. London Underground (1863), Chicago "L" (1892), Vienna Metro (1898), Paris Métro (1900), Berlin U-Bahn (1902), New York City Subway (1904), Stockholm ...
Thus the scale and approximate prototype gauge are represented, with the model gauge used (9 mm for H0e gauge; 6.5 mm for H0f gauge) being implied. [ 2 ] 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 ...
TrainSim.Com was the first community to embrace MSTS in 2001, and has an active support community as well as a file library of user created content for the game. [35] Over 50,000 files ranging from entire routes to individual locomotives and cars are available to use with the legacy MSTS game and with Open Rails.
The largest common scale is 1:8, with 1:4 sometimes used for park rides. G scale (Garden, 1:24 scale) is most popular for backyard modelling. It is easier to fit a G scale model into a garden and keep scenery proportional to the trains. Gauge 1 and Gauge 3 are also popular for gardens. O, S, HO, and N scale are more often used indoors.

Currently, there are a number of programs that are used for 3-D model railroading. Among them are the aforementioned MSTS, Open Rails (which currently uses the routes and rolling stock from MSTS), Auran's Trainz, Rail Simulator, published by Electronic Arts in partnership with Kuju Entertainment, and its successor Railworks, published by Rail Simulator Developments Ltd.
