2. List of rail transport modelling scale standards - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rail_transport...

   Model railway scales and gauges are standardized in NEM 010, [1] which covers several gauges for each scale. Narrow gauges are indicated by an additional letter added after the base scale as follows: no letter = standard gauge (1,250–1,700 mm or 49.2–66.9 in) m = metre gauge (850–1,250 mm or 33.5–49.2 in) e = narrow gauge (650–850 mm ...

3. Rail transport modelling scales - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Rail_transport_modelling_scales

   The dominant scale used in the United States for models of "standard gauge" trains running on 45 mm (1.772 in) track, even though 1:32 is more prototypically correct. 1:29 represents standard gauge using 2 in (50.8 mm) gauge track, the original gauge 2. This fell into disuse as gauge 1 at 1.75 inch was very close.

4. Minimum-gauge railway - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum-gauge_railway

   The major distinction between a miniature railway (US: 'riding railroad' or 'grand scale railroad') and a minimum-gauge railway is that miniature lines use models of full-sized prototypes. There are miniature railways that run on gauges as wide as 2 ft (610 mm), for example the Wicksteed Park Railway.

   Live steam. A hand-crafted, coal-fired, 1:8 scale 2-10-0 'live steam' locomotive in 71⁄4 in (184 mm) gauge. A "high line" representation of a Whitelegg-designed Baltic Tank in LT&S Livery. This engine runs on a track gauge of 3.5 inches and is powerful enough to pull several people. High lines are a configuration of a continuously elevated ...
