Athearn, models representing a balance of detail features and price point, in HO and N scale. Roundhouse, representing affordable, durable models for entry-level buyers; from 2004 to 2015 the line consisted of former "Blue box" models only. [6] McHenry, HO-scale and N-scale model railroad couplers
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 81⁄2 in) standard gauge tracks and trains in HO.
Atlas Model Railroad Co. Atlas Model Railroad Company, Inc. makes scale models in N scale, HO scale, and O scale. The company is based in Hillside, New Jersey, United States. They produce a wide variety of locomotives, rolling stock, and vehicles. Atlas is well known for their flex track and codes 55, 80, 83 and 100 track.
The company was founded in 1960 by Ing. Heinz Rössler and started with a plastic Minitanks series of military vehicles. After export to the USA became successful, the model line was expanded with model trains in HO scale and the smaller N scale. TT scale was also subsequently added to the product line. The model rail product line covers many ...

Railway modelling (UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland) or model railroading (US and Canada) is a hobby in which rail transport systems are modelled at a reduced scale.
(Reuters) -Georgia's Republican-controlled election board voted on Friday to require a labor-intensive hand count of potentially millions of ballots in November, a move voting rights advocates say ...
3' Gauge rail modelling is a specialisation in rail transport modelling. Specifically it relates to the modelling of narrow gauge prototypes of 3 ft (914 mm) gauge. This gauge was the most common narrow gauge in the United States and in Ireland. Apart from some other lines in North, Central and South America, 3 ft gauge was uncommon elsewhere.
