    Lego trains use a fixed nominal gauge of 37.5 mm (1 + 15 ⁄ 32 in), based on 5-stud track centerlines gauge. [5] [6] [7] 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 8 + 12 in) standard gauge ...
