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 ...
The association covers modelling British narrow-gauge railways in the following gauges: O16.5.O scale on 16.5mm track, representing 2 ft 4 1 ⁄ 4 in gauge. This scale is widely used to model railways of 2 ft (610 mm), 2 ft 3 in (686 mm) and 2 ft 6 in (762 mm) gauges. [1]
7 mm scale, also known as British O scale is a model railway scale of 1:43.5 (or 7 mm to 1 ft; hence its name). [1] The scale is thus different from American O scale (1:48) [1] and European O scale (1:45). For standard gauge railways, 32mm gauge, or 0 gauge is most commonly used. [1] ScaleSeven (S7) standard however specifies 33 mm gauge, which ...
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-to-run models. Has a track gauge ...
10.5 mm H0 scale using 3-scale-foot narrow-gauge track. HOe gauge: 1:87: 9 mm European HO scale narrow-gauge models using 9 mm (0.354 in) (the same as N scale) track to represent prototypes with gauge between 650 and 850 mm (25.6 and 33.5 in), particularly 750 mm (2 ft 5 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) and 760 mm (2 ft 5 + 15 ⁄ 16 in) gauge. HOn2 gauge: 1:87: 7 mm
O14 is a set of model railway standards for accurately modelling 2 ft (610 mm) narrow-gauge railways in 1:43.5 using 14 mm (0.551 in) gauge track. The first published O14 standards appeared in Model Railway Constructor magazine, September 1951. The article was titled "A Narrow Gauge Layout" and was by Douglas Clayton.

British OO standards operate on track significantly too narrow. The 4 mm/1 foot scale on a 16.5 mm (0.65 in) gauge corresponds to a track gauge of 4 ft 1 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (1,257 mm), 7 inches or 178 millimetres (undersized). 16.5 mm (0.65 in) gauge corresponds to 4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (1,435 mm) standard gauge in H0 (half-0) 3.5 mm/1 foot or 1:87.1 ...
