Smith Sent: Saturday, October 06, 2007 1:49 PM To: 'velapoldi'; [email protected]; 'S-Trains' Subject: RE: {S-Scale List} OO scale OO is 4mm to the foot. 4mm.= approx .156 to a foot or 1/76 of full size S is 3/16 to a foot., or 1/64th of full size. See chart below. There are some other scales used because, for example, O gauge comes out to be 5 track gauge using the figures below. This is corrected by some who use 17/64 per foot and 1 ¼ track gauge or .250/foot and 1 3/16 track gauge. Also, HO is sometimes called 1/87 scale and sometimes 3.5mm to the foot. For this chart I used the value 1mm. = 0.0394. Gauge inch/foot Scale HO 0.1379 87.01958 OO 0.1576 76.14213 S 0.1875 64 O 0.25 48 Chuck Smith http://www.trainweb <http://www.trainweb.org/chucksmith/> .org/chucksmith/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:cesmith%40netacc.net> net _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:S-Scale%40yahoogroups.com> .com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:S-Scale%40yahoogroups.com> .com] On Behalf Of velapoldi Sent: Saturday, October 06, 2007 11:41 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:S-Scale%40yahoogroups.com> .com; S-Trains Subject: {S-Scale List} OO scale Hi all: Is OO basically S gauge? I'm sure this has been answered but searching might be a morass for me! :-) . I have a friend in England who has Hornby OO stored away in the attic. tx for info Rance Velapoldi (Tranby, Norway) [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!
