    Transport portal. v. t. e. A Japanese H0e scale model railroad. One of the smallest ( Z scale, 1:220) placed on the buffer bar of one of the larger ( live steam, 1:8) model locomotives. HO scale (1:87) model of a North American center cab switcher shown with a pencil for size. Z scale (1:220) scene of a 2-6-0 steam locomotive being turned.

    Model gauge. 16.5 mm ( 0.65 in) Prototype gauge. Standard gauge. HO or H0 is a rail transport modelling scale using a 1:87 scale (3.5 mm to 1 foot). It is the most popular scale of model railway in the world. [1] [2] The rails are spaced 16.5 millimetres (0.650 in) apart for modelling 1,435 mm ( 4 ft 8⁄2 in) standard gauge tracks and trains ...

    The 37.5 mm length is not derived by a certain scale ratio. While HO scale is a 1:87 scale (3.5 mm to 1 foot), resulting in a 16.5 mm ( 0.65 in) gauge from real life prototype 1,435 mm ( 4 ft 81⁄2 in) standard gauge standard gauge. Conversely, modeling standard gauge in Lego trains would yield a scaling of (37.5:1435 =) 1:38.3.

  7. O scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_scale

    O scale (or O gauge) is a scale commonly used for toy trains and rail transport modelling. Introduced by German toy manufacturer Märklin around 1900, by the 1930s three-rail alternating current O gauge was the most common model railroad scale in the United States and remained so until the early 1960s. In Europe, its popularity declined before ...

    1,435 mm ( 4 ft 8. +. 1⁄2 in) standard gauge. Z scale is one of the smallest commercially available model railway scales (1:220), with a track gauge of 6.5 mm / 0.256 in. Introduced by Märklin in 1972, Z scale trains operate on 0–10 volts DC and offer the same operating characteristics as all other two-rail, direct-current, analog model ...
