What else can I help you with?
Can you run any ho gauge engine on ho track or just the track that it came with it?
Every ho scale train I have had worked on any ho scale track.
Can all ho scale train models run on same track?
No. There are many different scales, or gauges, of model trains. For example, an N scale train would be too small to fit on HO scale track.
What size track does model train gauge on3 run on?
0n3 .. that's O scale (1:48) running on .75 in gauge track (1:48 = 1/4" = 1ft.) ... On30 runs on HO track (meaning that HO track represents 30" track in O scale)
Where can one buy Ho Scale Track?
One can buy a Ho Scale Track at Tower Hobbies, Trainz and Model Train Stuff. This type of track is also available at A Main Hobbies and and Hobby Linc.
How wide is ho scale track?
3/4 inches. Modeltrainpro.com
For what is a brass ho scale used?
It appears that HO Scale is a term used within the world of miniature trains. HO scale refers to the size scale of these trains and many are made of brass. Therefore a brass ho scale can be used to describe model trains.
What is the HO Scale used for?
The HO scale is used for measuring when it comes to model trains. Originally there was the O scale, or O gauge. When train models went to an even smaller size they created the HO scale to measure them.
Is HO the most popular model train scale?
HO is a gauge (scale) for model trains. The name HO comes from the fact that it represents a reduction of half from the earlier O gauge ("Half O"), which was more popular in Europe. The ratio for HO gauge equipment is 1:87 which means that the HO tracks are 16.5mm apart, or 1/87th of a standard train track (1435mm). In Europe, an almost exactly the same scale is called OO (pronounced "Double O"), even though it is much closer to half of O scale than double it (it is actually called "Double O" because there are two O's (OO) in the scale name).
Can Lionel and bachmann electric trains run on the same track?
Lionel and Bachmann electric trains can generally run on the same track if they are compatible in terms of scale and track gauge. Lionel trains are typically O scale and operate on O gauge track, while Bachmann produces a variety of scales, including HO and N. If both are in the same scale and use the same gauge, they can run together; otherwise, they will require separate tracks. Always check the specifications to ensure compatibility.
How large are the tracks used for HO scale trains?
The HO scale trains use a 3.5mm to 1 real foot ratio which works out to be about 1:87:1 and is the most popular scale for model railways in the world. A train for this type of track would have 16.5mm (0.650in) tracks.
Are HO scale trains compatible with N scale?
No, HO and N scale trains are not compatible.
Do you need HO gauge track to run a HO gauge train?
Yes, HO track is needed to operate an HO train.
