Page 5 of 17 – Understanding The Model Trains Terminology
To better understand model trains, it would be helpful if you would familiarize yourself with the main and common scales of such items. Among the commonly used scales are the N scale, the TT scale, the 0 scale, the HO scale, the G scale and the Gauge 1 scale. The N scale model trains are one of the most popular scaled moving trains. The scales are usually ranging between 1:148 and 1:160. The distance notable between the rails used is 9mm. Collectors almost always choose N scale model trains because of its space efficiency.

=================================================
The TT scale of model trains is also very common. TT, which means Table Tops, has a scale equal to 1:120. The TT scale model trains are a little larger in size than the N scale and smaller than the HO scale. The original purpose of TT scale model trains is to be facilitated and appreciated in tabletops. Germany has been a big contributor to the model train sector.
The 0 scale of model trains was developed and introduced by a German manufacturer of toys, Marklin. 0 scale model trains can be considered as toy sizes and are the smallest in the group. The scale has a 1:43 size ratio and has a 32mm distance in between its rails. The overall scales of 0 scale model trains are also considered fictional or are far from being truthful in scale.
