A reminder that O or 7mm gauge in the UK is 1:43.5 so their trains are large, from our perspective, for O.
Chris Borgmeyer Re: British S gauge cars for Thomas? Posted by: "Jim and Cheryl Martin" [email protected] [email protected] Sun Jan 16, 2011 3:16 pm (PST) Hi guys: A small clarification regarding Des's letter. my earlier suggestion was to re-gauge O scale models, not OO. British prototype trains are smaller than their North American counterparts, and OO (1/76 scale) is smaller than S. Thus in my opinion it would make sense to try to use the larger scale because there would probably be less of a visual disconnect between O scale British and S scale American.
